Quinnipiac University Top Questions

The academics are impeccable, especially for the Health Sciences. Quinnipiac has recently opened a medical school, and they also have a law school. These graduate schools are some of the best in the nation, and only admit the best students. Undergraduate studies prepare students well for their careers, and graduate school.

My professors know my name, the classes aren't too big (25 is the average) but you don't feel like you're the only one in there. A lot of teachers will use participation as part of your grade, but they're really great. Most have real life experience so they aren't just teaching out of a book. The marketing department is great. I'm already being offered internships, the career services here are really helpful if you go out and use it. I like the way the curriculums are set up here (you have 3 to fulfill- university which is like elective classes, your school's curriculum so for business it's into classes to all of the major components of the business school, and then your major curriculum)

Im in the business school and the requirements and work are all manageable. The only classes I've had alot of assignments in are the required QU classes like QU101 journals every other day and papers at least 1-2 times a month.

QU holds its academics at extremely high expectations. They take great pride in providing their students with the education needed to excel in his/her program. Although this is true, every professor is different in how they teach and what they expect, and therefore the experience will differ from student to student. Once you finish your gen-eds and enter into your major classes, the professors who are professionals in these fields are attentive to their students. In my major, I know all of my professors are extremely friendly and allow the students to feel comfortable in the classroom environment. I know I can approach them with any questions/concerns I may have about my grades, papers/projects, and even outside advice on everyday life occurences. The professors treat you as individuals and see you eye to eye instead of looking down on you. Students at QU are competitive and the admission process i know has raised its expectations since I applied 4 years ago. The University's academic requirements are rigorious, but of course this depends on your major. Overall, I know the hard work and dedication I have for my academics will 100{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} land me with a job the moment I graduate from grad. school with my masters degree.

I could teach better then half the teachers

The Academics at Quinnipiac are very challenging and interesting.

Quinnipiac has some great academic programs at the Master's level. Their Physician and Pathology Assistant programs are very high ranked. I DONT recommend this school for a science oriented four year degree because their science equipment is very outdated. For example we had scopes from the 50's with a single eyepiece!!

classes are small enough that professors know your name and expect you to be in class and participate.

Great! I like that it's a balance of you major and liberal arts courses. I feel I gained a wealth of knowledge. Great professors who care about students. Classes are small. The international business staff of the business school is awful.

Professors are wonderful, always available. I have enjoyed my Broadcast Journalism classes b/c the professor has worked in the field for years. I dont think it is very competative, I think we all want each other to do well. That being said, I think we encourage each other to do better by example. I think Quinnpiac prepares you for the real world.
