The University of Montana Top Questions

The Faculty are the best thing about our school here at the university of montana. The reason being, they are super helpful- whenever I need some information they are always there to give advice. Our faculty in the music department especially are like your comrades. Even if you have a question or concern that has nothing to do with your field of study, they will stop and listen and give advice on practical life concerns.

The University of Montana is a good school and not in Bozeman (my hometown) but it is not too far away. I have friends that attend there and I really like the surrounding area. I like to hunt and fish and hike and there's plenty of that to do in the close area. It also is a good school for my major. I want to be an optomitrist and this a good undergraduate university.

This school is so open to everyone of every background, and encourages self-expression in everything, whether its performing arts or business marketing.

The element that I enjoyed most about the University of Montana was the wonderful programs they offered. I got my teaching certificate in Secondary Education with a Language Arts emphasis and the School of Education there was great. The faculty and classes were all terrific and I felt prepared for student teaching. In addition to that, during my student teaching, I felt very supported by my academic advisor and with his guidance and strong mentorship, had a positive experience student teaching. The School of Education was only one of the many great programs offered at the University of Montana.

My favorite part of campus is the atmosphere. The river, the mountain, the town, the brick pathways and the fall leaves. All of that passes on into the classrooms, which aren't as intimidating or daunting because of comfortableness of the campus.

The best thing about my school is the sense of community built around it in the town of missoula as well as on campus. Many students from around the world attend and with my focus on the French Language and Education i thrive on meeting new people and learning of their views and thoughts of the world we all live in. We need to work together in a SERIOUS manner to see a new bright world.

The best part about the University of Montana is the sense of community. Here, as well as the rest of Montana, there is a small-town, friendly attitude. However, with a population of around 57,000, the town is large enough to accomodate the luxuries of city life too. The Clark Fork River runs through Missoula, and the city is surrounds by the Rocky Mountains, so for the more outdoorsy types, there are plenty of extracurricular activities. The professors at the school, in general, seem to care about how well their students learn, and always engage them in the discussion.

It is nice to wake up everyday to the beauty of the mountains surrounding the valley of the UM college. During the Fall the leaves change colors and all the trees are decorated in different strokes. The winter brings a christmas feel to it because it blankets the earth with snow and a mist often rises from the nearby river towards the college. For the most part the people here are friendly and the drivers are considerate. The football team is very successful and gives a chance to show good team spirit during games. Some professors are gifted researchers.

The University of Montana has superb professors. At most large universities one finds that the teaching faculty doesn't have time for the students, they focus on passing through the material. Professors here will stand outside the room and engage in casual conversations before class. It is not difficult to find help, all they ask is that the students come in during hours or during an agreed time. Professors also make teaching assistants available for assistance.

The accessibility of resources. Everything is incredibly easy to find and the population on campus is very friendly.
