Technical University offers several different programs, so you should do
your homework and know what you want and need before
contacting the school. They offer both accelerated classes, which are
only 5 and one half weeks long, as well as
the traditional 9 week courses. Be prepared for fast paced
learning if you choose to take an accelerated class, if
you miss an assignment, or are unclear as to
the instructors directions it could cost you your grade. The
faculty was very approachable, I only had two professors who
were arrogant, but that is to be expected at any
university. The cost of tuition is high, but the options
and resources available help balance this out. Most of the
classes require you to do research, and write papers based
on different scenarios that could happen in the workplace. You
should be a self motivated student, no one is here
to hold your hand and make sure you finish your
assignments. One of the pluses though, is the availability of
the faculty. If you do need clarification, the instructors are
available via email and phone if you need a more
immediate response. The over all experience has been great, a
little stressful at times when trying to balance work and
school, but still manageable. I would suggest you be honest
with yourself, if you are not a self motivated individual,
and lack the drive to stay on task, then this
school is not for you. The tools are there for
you to be successful, you just need the drive and
determination to get things done. As with any university, you
get out of your experience what you put in. One
of the differences would be in the papers you submit.
Unlike other universities, you are required to do a lot
of research based writing, which is checked for “originality” which
means you must cite your resources. This means no cutting
and pasting information and calling it your own, that is
plagiarism and will result in an “F” in the course
and possible expulsion from the school. This in my opinion
is great as it forces the students to be honest
with their postings and greatly reduces the amount of cheating
that takes place on any university campus. I hope
this information was helpful!
