A Sense of Family
Being a small program, students develop close bonds with their professors and each other. In addition to working closely together on a variety group projects for class, students bond outside of class through social events and extracurricular organizations, providing emotional and social support for one another. The feeling of family is strong and graduates from the program know that this played a major role in their success.
