UT has a great business school, and it seems like we must have decent engineering and nursing programs as well, but some of the smaller departments could use some work.

Professors at UT can know your name. You have to push yourself to be outgoing and make your professor know your name by being participatory and making an effort. My favorite class had an excellent and enthusiastic professor who made the material interesting. My least favorite was an online class in which the professor was completely unaccountable.
Overall, the students are not particularly competitive. I've managed to find some very intelligent and valuable friends. My most unique class was on Catholicism and Contemporary American Literature. My department is philosophy. Overall, the humanities are not very respected at UT; however, the faculty could not be more caring. I spend a good amount of time with my professors serving on committees, going to their office hours, and seeing them around campus. I feel that some of the university's requirements are stupid. The foreign language requirement is excessive. But, overall, it's pretty standard.

I am a pharmacy major. While my school has a large amount of students, I have been privileged to know the majority of the students in my classes. This has given my major a sort of family away from family feel to it. The professors also feel very connected to the students and want to help us in any way possible.

I have been lucky to have profs know my name. I love my senior level pr classes. tons of fun. But by far the best class would be with Lee Kranbuhl and interpersonal communication. The class was so much fun and very student oriented. I dont think Communication is geared toward getting you a job... more so just getting a degree.

Professors are always nice and courteous in class, and are always available to talk to if you need to ask them a question or explain something further.

A majority of the professor's on UT's campus are completely dedicated to you succeeding as long as you show that you want to be successful. The UT library has become my second home, I study soo much. And I am not usually on for the books.

I have been lucky to have profs know my name. Some still cant spell it but thats another story. I love my senior level pr classes. tons of fun. But by far the best class would be with orene colcord... it was some artistic class where we would yell and move! lol easy A!! Students study when needed. some study more often... just depends on the person. I dont think Communication is geared toward getting you a job... more so just getting a degree.
