University of Nevada-Las Vegas Top Questions

What are the academics like at University of Nevada-Las Vegas?

Jack

Most of my classes at UNLV are fairly difficult and require a lot of studying since my major is Biochemistry, so I can't say any one course is my less favorite over the other. Frankly all of them are easily unenjoyable.

Professors know my mom but forget it the minute I am out of the class The academic requirements of UNLV are pretty good. It's just hard to get over those stereotypes. You will most likely get just as good an Education from UNLV as a Bachelor then any other college. I'm not sure about Grad School

Professors don't really know my name. My favorite class(es) are political science and photography, my least favorite is my english class, I don't like english. Class participation is sort of common. Sometimes I do overhear other peoples conversations and they are intellectual, its quite nice.

I have a couple smaller classes where the professors are very friendly and address you by name, and that is always nice. Class participation is lacking at UNLV. It seems like in most classes, the students are too scared, or stupid, to answer questions. Some teachers are condescending and aren't really into class participation. I think classes are UNLV are definitely more geared toward getting a job rather than staying in academia for life, which is definitely nice if thats what you are into.
