Winthrop University

Not only do you learn about your field of interest, but you also learn how to interact with so many different types of people. Winthrop is all about diversity!

I never thought I'd learn so much pursuing a Computer Science degree from a liberal arts college. The classes are small so you receive individual attention from teachers who really care, and are more than willing to meet with you after class to help you with anything.

I am truly learning a lot from being here. Had it not been for the professors, I don't think my experience would have been this easy. They are willing to help you one on one whenever you don't understand and they offer tutorial sessions when needed. They are so approachable and make you feel as though you are an integral part of the already diverse campus. The classes are not all easy, but after a few hours of studying, they become more fulfilling and enjoyable.

At Winthrop I’m not only learning what I will need to know to be successful in my career one day, I’m learning about life, people, and myself. In dealing with my roommates I’ve learned how to handle conflict. From my professors, I’m learning that I have no limits, and I can go as far as I push myself. Even in my minor I am learning how talent, hard work, and commitment can get you where you want to go.

I am going into my 4th year and have learned an outstanding amount of information on anything and everything. My classes are intense and force you think outside the box. The teachers like to give a general guideline to the lecture and then have the students take it from there so that they make themselves think further than just what the text book has to say. My general course work has been great and has helped me become a better student in my own field of study. The education department here is fantastic. They really give you chance to be in the field and have the experience with teacher other than just the student teaching. The teachers in the department are always willing to help you learn more and understand more especially when it comes to helping you to learn to teach better.

The mistakes that I have made at Winthrop have helped me to grow and become a better college student.

Not only am I learning a lot from professors teaching my major, but professors teaching general education classes also have a way of drawing you in and making classes interesting so that you get the most of it!

im learning more than i expected. from all the stories i hear about college not caring if you learn this school tries it hardest to help you learn. in the past year and a half i've learn more than in my 4 years at my high school.

plenty of interest clubs available.
cultural community with friendly people.
great staff who are always willing to help.

With smaller class sizes, I feel that I'm learning a lot and more efficiently that friends I know at larger Universities. Professors are always open to questions and constantly stress that their office are meant to give us the help that we need to succeed.
