Academics

The emphasis here is placed on students learning the material. While grades are important, I have heard on more than one occasion that the goal is for students to learn, and the emphasis on grades is limited.

The professors are professionals and scholars and the studies include a wide variety of topics to satisfy current areas of interest in business, information technology, and education as well as a solid education in theory. Rigor includes faculty expectations of student mastery and interaction. Students are encouraged to publish or deliver papers at conferences that feature their interests.

No matter where you go, graduate school is a place of high academic rigor. It is expected that students are self-motivated and driven to always do their best.
