Students are the reason we teach, inviting them to join us as we explore the depths of our respective disciplines. Be prepared to grow and develop as a student and professional through classwork and hands-on experiences, like assisting with a professor’s ongoing research. The relationships you build here with your professors and mentors will carry you for years to come. Our professors don’t just teach the material — they practice it as professionals outside of the classroom, leading you as experts, mentoring you as future peers.
