Colorado State University-Fort Collins Top Questions

As far as professors, i have had some good ones and some i cannot stand but i think thats how it is with just about anything. i have experienced both huge classes and really small ones. i prefer the larger ones. i don't think i have had a favorite class so far because they are all still pretty basic but i did really like my psychology professor. he made the class worth it. right now i am in appreciation of philosophy, i do not reccomend it at all. hate the class, the subject, and especially the professor. the most unique class i have taken is textiles, it was on everything about fabric thread and even the animals they come from. it was different but i enjoyed it. i would feel pretty uncomfortbale hanging out with a professor but i see other people do it. not for me though. i think the academics main objective is to set you up with a job after this. i feel like the advisors and professors are geared to help us succeed for a career later on.

The professors are extremely friendly, they will talk to you if you run into them outside of class and are always willing to help you. My favorite class was International Marketing, we had an amazing semester project. Some of the entry level classes are extremely boring, if you can get past those, the upper division classes are well worth your time. CSU isn't a real competitive school, most people are happy with their B's, but they care enough to participate in class. The Business school is fantastic, I have confidence that I will leave college with a good job. The Political Science department is good, they have a great internship program if you are willing to drive down to Denver twice a week.

Great classes, challenging, learned a lot

The academics are for the most part challenging. Many stiudents spend most of the classroom time reading the newspaper, watching tv on their laptops and textmessaging. I would imagine the GPA is directly realted to those activities. The faculty that I have encountered so far have been average to above average.

I have enjoyed my academic experience thus far. I'm apart of Rockwell Hall College of Business, and too my surprise our business school is ranked fairly well nationally. And the classes I have had through Rockwell have proved its place among the rankings, I believe it could be placed higher. At the school many of the mentors and older students stress meeting with the professors, and really get to know your professors. And the professors! have also done just that...opening their doors to all the students to come meet with them for just about anything.

College is all about learning right? I am here to get my degree first and formost. I make the effort to introduce myself to my teachers and get to know them a little so some of them do know my name and the rest at least recognize my face. Professors are very friendly and genuinley interested in the student body. I feel if anyone makes an effort to get to know the faculty, the faculty will do the same thing. CSU provides a rigorous ciriculum for all students reguardless of major. For that reason I think that the learning that takes place on a day to day basis is geared towards helping students get a job upon graduation. Overall, I am very pleased with the academics at CSU.

For the most part i am pretty pleased! the one thing I DO NOT like AT ALL are the online courses because many times something happens with the programs we use, and it stops working. there is also A LOT of confusion. It seems like the professors just want to hand us our work and get on to living the rest of their lives. They don't really spend any time teaching us. They just give us the assignment and send us on our way.

Most of the professors in my area of study know me by name. The Journalism faculty is very in touch with students.

My favorite class is sports marketing and is the professor is Todd Donovan. My least favorit class is International Finance. Students are very competitive and active in and out of class. I think CSU is more geared toward getting a job. They have classes and teacher that prepare you for life after college and what to expect when you graduate.

The academics here are one of a kind. I think the students here are very competitive. Just last night I was at work and me and another kid were talking about a project of his for engineering design 2 and trying to figure out a way to make his design work right.
