Review of University of Massachusetts-Lowell

from Topsfield, MA

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

The Computer Science Department is the best I have seen. I could study robotics, gaming & programing- everything I am interested in. Then the school is connected to many businesses in the area & I can work or research with outside projects. They prepare you for the real world.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

The campus is near a city for many cultural & sports activities. I can also drive out to skiing, hiking and other rural activities. The academic attitude is strict & I have to study pretty hard but teams are set up for freshman to help with study groups and develop a community atmosphere. It works for me.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

UML has a great reputation as a state school and the grads get good jobs! The professors are very connected to the working world and know how to direct the students towards job placement. That says it all to me!

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

A state school with great rating!!! You really can't go wrong with this school. Make sure you get a tour of the dept. your interested in. If you go see Computer Science, you will be blown away!

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Anyone interested in math or sciences. Physical Therapy & music are great here too.
