Our school is based on many different cultures and races, making it one of the most culturally diversed colleges. We have groups and organizations to learn more about their culture and helping us understand them more. We also have many unique clubs that most do not have including an anime club, bathtub race organization, and our own radio station. The campus is primarily guys since it's an engineering school, but there is still an abundance of female students here.

At SPSU, there is a great environment. The campus is quiet, and there are mulitiple places outside to study. The faculty and staff are eager to help with any problem, and are very friendly. SPSU treats you as an individual, not just a number.

If you are interested in hands on learning southern polytechnic is a great school, it is demanding but you will learn something thats very beneficial.

With the small class sizes you can really get to know your professors.

Well SPSU is fairly inexpensive university but a very good all-around school

How responsive the professors are to students needs. I had a professor that invited me to his house to help me on a project my freshman year. I was very impressed by how much he cared for how well his students did in the courses. Ever since, I have seem examples over and over again of how much professors want their students so succeed.

Eric

I brag mostly to my friends that SPSU is a great university that you apply can what you have learned as an undergraduate with apllications to the students field of study. Unlike, our rival, Georgia Tech, a research school, they dont not apply application to their field of study, therefore, their undergraduates are not familar as SPSU students with their field of study, which translates to a better understanding in a gradates field of work. Moreover, this is the reason our students are recruited more often than Ga Tech ; )

Josh

I usually start with how Southern Poly is one of the 16 hardest schools in the United States, and I still managed to have a 3.0.

Tyler

I love the professors. They are VERY helpful and always willing to make time to explain problems that you might have. They make themselves very accessable and I have enjoyed talking to them in and out of class. The professors at SPSU make the subject very interesting and create an environment that is conducive to learning.
