Florida Atlantic University

This University has an extremely high academic level. Professors are dedicated, and provide their students with all necessary material for them to have a complete understanding of their subject.
Many classes include discussions, or online sections, that are given in addition to the typical lesson, to allow students to completely comprehend all the information taught.
Furthermore, numerous courses will also have specific tutoring classes, offered for free, to clarify any questions that students might develop throughout the semester.

I feel I am learning a lot at FAU and that I am learning quickly. We have department advisors for the various fields of study to help us select our classes and ensure that we are only taking classes that are necessary for our major. I know first hand how important this is because I went to a different college for my fall term and ended up having to drop a class because I was never advised that an introduction to that course was necessary, although not required. At FAU, this is standard and it helps ensure that we do not waste our time or money. The classes are challenging, yet you know there is free lab help available should you need it. The professors are great at passing on their knowledge to us and they interact well with the students. The professors that I’ve had so far seem to really enjoy what they are doing and that makes for a better learning environment for us students.

You can tell that Florida Atlantic University really cares for their students, because the staff they have hired to teach, are very determined to make sure, that we succeed in whatever we would like to do. The staff is very friendly, and they give me a feeling that they are really there to help, instead of just wanting to be there, because they have to. Plus they have a plethora of programs for students who would like to learn more, or challenge themselves. For example, there is the University Scholars Program which a program that provides students with exceptional and rewarding learning opportunities through special honors seminars, giving each student special advising.

I've been in the college of engineering, college of business, and now, the college of design and social inquiry. The curriculum is all about applications and examples and how to's so when you're reading the text, you know when to use which information. Engineering is very cut and dry. You MUST be prepared to spend night after night studying, practicing, and reviewing. I have taken classes from every college, from history of earth and life to world politics to international economics to surveying. After every class session I would have to call or text someone and tell them what I learned. So much information in your head in one class time you think your head is going to explode.

the professors and their possible assistants are very helpful and prove the students with office hours and personal email addresses that they are able to be contacted at any given time. the library, which is three stories high, is available from early in the morning to late at night, in convenience of all students. the study groups and si sessions are also very helpful, especially if you missed class and around finals. there are various resources and tools that are readily available for everyone in order to have a greater learning experience.

The teachers are really good. They really care about there students and want them to do well. They have tons of resources around campus to help out the students.

Throughout high school your teachers always tell you that the give you so much work and try to grade hardly, because college you are all on your own and your professors will not care about you. At Florida Atlantic University I have found the complete opposite of this to be true. This university has made it possible for me to learn so much more than I though I could have, and provided me with many resources on furthering my learning and giving me help when I need it. My professors all are there when I need help during office hours, and the school provides many SI sessions and other tutor sessions completely free that help me in very many ways.

I plan to attend the FAU honors program, Wilkes, this spring. It is located in Jupiter and has a beautiful campus. However, a large deciding factor for me is that Scripps Laboratories, located on campus, offers numerous internships throughout your college experience. So you will not only learn a lot form the wonderful and qualified professors, but you will also gain hands on experience.

FAU has many different types of classes. There are many different classes to take with a variety of majors. They have tutors available to help you as well if you need extra help. FAU is a great school. There are classes online as well as in the classroom. Some teachers give you homework online as well, which is really helpful.

I am a Music Education Major at Florida Atlantic University. I have performed with a majority of the ensembles and enjoyed my experiance and my professors as well. The school itself is small when it comes to its image but the school has great teachers and a nice quiet campus. If you enjoy a quieter community when it comes to learning Florida Atlantic University could be the place for you. Go Owls. :D
