My school is best known for Engineers and it is the reason why the Math and Science classes are more difficult and challenging. The school is known for its engineers and so they provide challenging courses to shape the minds of students following that field of study. Of course, it is rather difficult for other students such as myself who do not look towards anything having to do with that field of study and look towards other fields (like Childhood Education).

The website states that the College is best known for comprehensive teaching, research, and service institution dedicated to accessibility and excellence in undergraduate and graduate education. From my personal experiences the Center for Worker Education (CWE) program provide students with all need to obtain a bachelor?s degree and certification in Early Childhood Education. The CWE campus is small and personal for someone who favors that one on one feel. I attend classes with many students in my field. Having classes with the same students helps build a support system and in the future a network.

The City College of New York (CCNY) is greatly known for its Sophi Davis School of Biomedical Education. The students go on to great medical schools and become the future doctors. CCNY also has a great engineering program at the Grove School of Engineering.
