This is a great program. The teachers really care about your success and work to ensure that true learning is taking place. The academic advisors reach out to you often to make sure you arent having any problems. I have been able to take the skills I learned in my program and directly apply them to my projects
Feels like home. University made me feel like a family member and not just a number. It created an atmosphere for learning. I often make mistakes (not intentionally) knowing that fellow classmates, faculty, and staff would assist in learning a better way to approach lifes problems.
