The investment professors make in their students provides a university experience infused with confidence and capability, care and ethics, intelligence and perspective.That personalized environment extends to the laboratory as well - the same professors conduct cutting-edge research, often with undergraduates at their side.Horned Frogs learn, live and play on a 289-acre ""green"" campus where all new construction is LEED-certified at the Gold or Silver level, highlighting TCU's commitment to sustainability. The Campus Commons is the heart of the university - home to the university union, residence halls and academics. Across University Drive, facilities in the new Intellectual Commons are technologically advanced and media-rich to complement TCU's state-of-the-art classrooms and laboratories.Students find here a sense of spirited belonging. When not in class or studying, they can work out in top-of-the-line recreation facilities, catch Big 12 NCAA athletic competitions, and choose from more than 230 co-curricular organizations - all without ever leaving campus.Of course, Horned Frogs also have opportunities to make the world their stage. Students might practice journalism in Washington, D.C., take on international business in Beijing, perfect their Spanish in Seville, or intern in New York City and Los Angeles. Other students may choose to find something closer to home in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, which was ranked by Forbes as one of the best places in the country to get a job after graduation.TCU is a dynamic, up-and-coming university.

  • ","A new era of excellence is dawning at Texas Tech University as it stands on the cusp of being one of the nation's premier research institutions. Research and enrollment numbers are at record levels, and the university recently received Highest Research Activity status from The Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Learning. Texas Tech's total research expenditures continue to rise. The largest student enrollments occurred in the last eight fall semesters, respectively. Numbers like that cement Texas Tech's commitment to attracting and retaining quality students. Quality students need a top-notch faculty. Texas Tech is home to a diverse, highly revered pool of educators. In 2013, ten faculty members were awarded grants from the Fulbright U.S. Scholar Program, the most in the university's 92-year history and the most in the U.S. that year. Through the Fulbright program, these educators are bestowed the opportunity to work side-by-side with researchers around the world promoting educational collaboration. Texas Tech also has four National Academy members on faculty at the Whitacre College of Engineering. This honor is considered one of the highest among professional engineers. One of the National Academy members was also appointed as the new holder of the Jack Maddox Distinguished Engineering Chair in Sustainable Energy. Texas Tech is constantly reaching necessary benchmarks to make it even more of a national presence in research. In May of 2012, the university met the criteria to receive a share of Texas National Research University Fund (NRUF). Inclusion to the fund moves Tech a step closer to attaining Tier One status. New research partnerships are creating unparalleled academic collaborations for the university to make strides in many areas.Since 1970, Texas Tech has been a trailblazer in wind science. The university created the National Wind Institute (NWI) to better support the interdisciplinary research and educational opportunities in wind science, engineering, and energy. The institute combines the former Wind Science and Engineering research center (WISE) and the Texas Wind Energy Institute. Texas Tech also houses newly commissioned turbines at the Department of Energy/Sandia Scaled Wind Farm Technology (SWIFT) Facility. The SWIFT facility is the only one of its kind in the world and gives the U.S. a significant advantage in the reduction of wind energy costs. Texas Tech has one of the largest petroleum engineering departments in the nation and, in 2014, opened the Terry Fuller Petroleum Engineering Research Building. The $20 million project houses 40,000-square feet of formal teaching environments with hands-on applications and modern research facilities. University researchers have developed innovative ways to stimulate natural gas and oil well production through hydraulic fracturing (fracking.) The Office of Technology Commercialization at Texas Tech has filed two patent applications to protect these methods and is actively working with oil and gas companies to begin using these improved rock fracturing techniques in the field. Texas Tech is a leader in community outreach and engagement.

  • ","The University of Oklahoma is truly an extraordinary institution, known for its academic excellence and strong sense of community. Attracting top students from across the nation and more than 120 countries around the world, OU provides a major university experience in a private college atmosphere. For the second time in three years, OU has enrolled more freshman National Merit Scholars than any other institution in the country - the only public university ever to have done so. The current student body is both the largest and most highly ranked academically in the history of public institutions in Oklahoma. In 2012, OU added its 29th Rhodes Scholar. No other university in Oklahoma has had more than two. OU is the only university in the nation whose students have won Rhodes, Marshall, Mitchell, Truman, Goldwater, and Fulbright scholarships in the same year. In 2016, the OU Honors College was named one of the top 25 programs at a public university, matching the University's best and brightest students with faculty in classrooms of 19 or fewer students. OU is one of the few public universities in the nation to cap the class size of first-year English composition courses at no more than 19. The University is at the top in the nation in international exchange agreements, allowing students to study in more than 79 countries and more than 220 cities on six continents around the world. OU is the only public university in the nation to be awarded the Davis Cup four consecutive years in recognition of its record-setting enrollment of United World College international freshmen. The number of endowed faculty positions has grown from fewer than 100 in 1994 to 578 today. In honor of OUs 125th anniversary, the University launched a $500 million private fundraising campaign, of which the largest component is to raise $100 million to provide scholarships and fellowships. During the past decade, research expenditures have more than doubled at OU, totaling more than $284 million in fiscal year 2014. In 2011, OU achieved the Carnegie Foundation's highest tier of research activity classification, making it the first time a public institution in Oklahoma has received this outstanding recognition. The Association of University Research Parks recently named OU's Research Campus the top research campus in the United States. Since 1995, more than $2 billion in construction projects have been completed or are underway on OUs three campuses - including a new school of biomedical engineering on the Norman main campus. OU is the only Big 12 university to be selected as having one of Americas 25 most beautiful campuses. The Sam Noble Oklahoma Museum of Natural History is one of the two largest natural history museums in the world associated with a university, containing more than 10 million artifacts.

These communities will become the cornerstone of the undergraduate experience. OU established the Faculty-In-Residence program, which places faculty members and their families in each of our residence halls to foster faculty and student interaction and encourage intergenerational friendships. Further, a different professor adopts each floor of the residence halls as well as each fraternity and sorority, allowing students and faculty to build relationships outside of the classroom.

Since our founding in 1867 as one of the original land-grant public universities, we have put the needs of our state and students first.

Udall Scholars and 2 George C. Marshall (British) Scholars. WVU is one of only about a dozen schools in the country that are land-grant, doctoral research universities with a comprehensive medical school. We offer 191 degree programs at the bachelors, masters, and doctoral levels through 15 academic schools and colleges, including five professional schools: dentistry, law, medicine, nursing, pharmacy, and public health. Research focus areas where WVU excels include STEM education, healthcare in Appalachia, using shale gas responsibly, radio astronomy, and promoting stewardship of water resources. WVU partnered with the FBI to found one of the first accredited forensic science programs in the nation, and the FBI named us its national leader for biometrics research. With three crime scene houses and a forensic garage for vehicle processing, and an 18,000 square foot dedicated forensic lab, WVU has the largest crime scene training complex in the world. We also offer the countrys first and only graduate law degree program in forensic justice. The Blanchette Rockefeller Neurosciences Institute at WVU is the only research center in the world dedicated to the study of human memory. WVU established one of the first individualized science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) tutoring programs for student-veterans in the United States, hosts one of only three puppetry degree programs in the country and is one of only three institutions that offers a joint petroleum and natural gas engineering ABET-accredited major. When not in class or a lab, students participate in over 400 student organizations and provide more than 61,000 hours of service. Helped by our students outreach to their community, WVU earned the Carnegie Foundations Community Engagement Classification, joining only 6% of all universities.

  • ","According to the school, The Catholic University of America is unique as the national university of the Catholic Church, with the added distinction that all undergraduates combine a base curriculum in the liberal arts with more in-depth courses from their major fields of study. Private and coeducational, CUA has 12 schools. Ten schools award undergraduate degrees: architecture and planning, arts and sciences, business and economics, engineering, music, nursing, philosophy, professional studies, social work, and theology and religious studies. All 12 schools grant graduate degrees. The student body of Catholic University totals nearly 6,500; of those nearly 3,500 are undergraduates. The University was founded in 1887 as a graduate institution. That foundation offers undergraduates unique opportunities to conduct scholarly and scientific research in their fields of study, working closely with faculty. CUA undergraduates begin their academic career with the First-Year Experience, which introduces them to philosophy, theology, rhetoric, and logic through study in small, supportive learning communities. This coursework engages them in thinking about, discussing, and writing about the great questions that have shaped human history and that continue to confront us today. Students have unique opportunities to address those questions worldwide through CUAs education abroad programs. Students in all majors can find semester, yearlong, or summer-only opportunities for study on five continents. In September 2015, the Rome Center of The Catholic University of America and Australian Catholic University opened, offering newly renovated living quarters for undergraduates, a wing for graduate students, apartments for visiting faculty, a studio for architecture majors, a chapel, and a garden, among other amenities. Politics majors can choose internships in the British or Irish houses of parliament, or the European Parliament or Commission. Architecture students can study the marvelous buildings of Rome or Paris, or, in the award-winning Spirit of Place Spirit of Design course, engage in a design-build project that begins in the studio and ends building a project in remote locations in such countries as Peru, Ireland, and Finland. Students in engineering can fulfill some of their academic requirements at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University. Nursing majors can learn valuable intercultural lessons at Australian Catholic University as well as take part in mission trips to Central America over the summer and on spring break. Through Campus Ministry, CUA students also embark on mission trips to Central America and Jamaica. In the nations capital they serve poor, elderly, homeless, or otherwise disadvantaged people through homeless food runs, work with Little Sisters of the Poor at the Jeanne Jugan Residence across the street, and at So Others Might Eat. The long history of the University in Washington, D.C., offers CUA students an incredible range of cultural and professional opportunities, most accessible from the D.C. Metrorail system, which is adjacent to campus. In fact, students at the University have the best of both worlds: They study and live on 176 acres, the largest campus in D.C., where they can enjoy a complete collegiate experience. They also are located in the heart of the United States capital, a 9-minute Metrorail ride from Capitol Hill, the Smithsonian Institution, Supreme Court, Library of Congress, and Union Station. In short, students from around the United States and numerous foreign countries find that CUAs academic offerings, Catholic foundation, stunning campus, and extensive off-campus opportunities make it a desirable educational destination.","Private, Coed",1887,"Roman Catholic",Semester,Urban,"$312.0 million","620 Michigan Avenue NE, Washington, DC 20064","(202) 319-5000",46,100.0 174,"2018-05-16 08:05:20",127,Rolling,"Cornell University, a private institution, does not offer online labs, and all of the online classes are recorded and archived so students can access lecture material at their convenience.

Syracuse University enrollment is about 20,000, and its student body is among the most diverse for an institution of its kind across multiple dimensions. Geographically, students represent all 50 states and more than 100 countries. The University has a long legacy of commitment to access and inclusion, and we believe that exposure to multiple perspectives, life experiences, backgrounds, and beliefs is an essential component of educational excellence. Global literacy is a major piece of this commitment, and we foster this both by offering a wide range of learning, research, and immersion opportunities around the world and by mindfully working to promote interaction and engagement among our richly diverse student body here on campus. Currently, about 19 percent of the student body is international, and nearly 45 percent of students participate in some type of study abroad experience.
