Eastern Michigan University Top Questions

My academic life at EMU has been extremely fun and fulfilling. I am majoring in International Affairs/French and I have loved most of my classes so far - excluding math, a subject in which I don't do so well. The Professors at the University are incredible and intelligent. They create an atmosphere for students to want to learn, and many times encourage students to have intellectual debates and conversations outside of class. (This tends to happen more often with those who are studying politics) I feel very welcomed by my Professors and I have spent time outside of class talking with my French Professor, which is pretty cool, because you get to build a personal relationship with the staff and it helps with the learning process. I believe that the school's academic requirements are fair, yet they seem as though they lack in some areas. The General Education requirement is a good way to get students to dip their toes into the waters of different fields of study, yet there aren't many choices in classes as I would like to see. Many of the course requirements of certain majors are difficult to follow as well, because the classes aren't always offered every semester. Overall, however, I have been very pleased with my life here at EMU so far!

The course requirements at EMU are geared toward a well-rounded education. The general education requirements for all students are pretty rigorus in my opinion. The professors I have had so far have been excellent. They are very helpful and excessible. So far i have had a few very thought provoking classes where students were able think outside the box.
