Quinnipiac University Top Questions

All my professors know my name, which is great. There is a wide variety of classes to take and your curriculum depends on your major. I love the classes and they have flexible times.

love the poli sci professors and department

The professors here for the most part are very understanding and easy to get along with. I graduated high school in CP2 courses, which is a level below honors, and so I thought I would be struggling very much coming to Quinnipiac. But it actually wasnt as bad as I thought, and I have a 2.9 gpa and academics does not take up my entire life.

The academics at Quinnipiac are very stong and challenging. I enjoy the small class sizes because I know my teacher by name and they know me. Also, I have meet many new people in my classes. In some classes, there is strong class participation, but in other classes the teacher just lectures. One aspect that I don't like is that there are many core requirement classes that I feel that I am trapped. I wish I could take more "major" classes sophomore year instead of saving them all for Junior and Senior year.

As mentioned before, the class sizes are pretty small. Most professors try to learn your name and some will even try to learn more, depending on the class size. Being a graduate student here now, the classes are much smaller and the professors really do a good job of getting to know their students. My favorite classes were sociology classes and media studies classes. Once you get past the core curriculum, which I wasn't a fan of because of the science requirements, and get to take classes you actually like, school becomes a lot more fun and interesting.

Quinnipiac is well rounded in academics. The Communications, Buisness and Physical Therapy/Athletic Training programs are well known. Professors are more than willing to spend extra time to help students. Class sizes are small so you get to know your professor.

The majority of the professors I have had make an honest effort to learn names. Students tend to study only before a test. Class participation is common in discussion like classes, but not really in science based classes. The Biology department is very good - they are always willing to help and extending office hours or their time. Lab requirements for this major are excessive, but definitely worth the effort; it gives alot of experience. I think education here is more of learning, because searching for jobs now has made me realize how basic my understanding of science is, and not very focused on a single thing.

I love the faculty here. I have had very few complaints about professors. I think out of my years here, I've only had about two bad professors. Each professor is always really nice and willing to help. They want you to learn and encourage a good learning environment. I really like that about the faculty here. Students, for the most part, are really eager to learn here. Class participation and discussion is very common and encouraged.

I know all of my professors names, classes are small and interactive.

I feel that Quinnipiac's academic requirements are just and have the students face a wide range of possibilities so they can choose the career path they can truly enjoy.
