Student/Alumnus Reviews of Schools for This Career and State
University Of Minnesota Duluth • Duluth, MN
Studying Information Systems (completion in 2011)
• 7/14/2011
"I enjoyed my time there. I almost wish I went to a bigger school, though."
Ratings are on a 1-10 scale
| Characteristic | Rating | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Would Recommend? | no | I would advise others to find a bigger school if they were looking into my career or program. This school wasn't dedicated to it. |
| Program Reputation | 5 | Middle of the road. There were not a lot of great connections, and I had to go find interviews myself. It is building up its reputation now, though. |
| Program Quality | 6 | It wasn't top of the line. I still did feel like I learned enough to be competitive in the information systems field. |
| Instruction | 7 | It wasn't all up to date software. It could have been better. |
| How Difficult | 7 | The workload was tough. There were lots and lots of programming assignments, but I enjoyed them and felt they taught me a lot. |
| Hands-On vs. Bookish | It was an absolute mix. There was both book learning and hands on experiences. | |
| Schedule Flexibility | 6 | They didn't offer all classes during the summer or online. It was not all that flexible in general. |
| Academic Facilities | 7 | There wasn't a lot of study groups for my major/program because it wasn't all that big. They were out there if you looked hard, however. |
| Social Life | 7 | I enjoyed my college experience. The alumni and sports programs here are very good. |
| Placement Services | 6 | They didn't quite find me a job. They pointed me in the right direction, though. |
| Alumni Network | 5 | The alumni wasn't quite prestigious. It was good to work with them, however. There were some very nice people. |
