I have been both student and instructor there for many years. My experience as PhD student in Economics Department was a bit lonely. They kind of give us courses and then leave us to do whatever we want, which can be a little difficult, because we are not educated to set standards to yourself. Same thing was also true for being a graduate instructor. I tried to be original, and add certain aspects to the courses I taught where my students can discuss what they have learned, and sometimes make their own research on subjects they want as undergraduate student. But in my first year, I have been an amateur to be honest. Maybe it would be better if graduate instructors are not left by themselves at least in their first year of teaching.

As a current student here, I have found this school is the least student friendly campus around. The dorms are a 45 minute walk from lower campus- which is where most classes are held. The bus system is so unreliable it is almost laughable. Student meal plans are a waste of money because no one that I know can ever spend enough, and thousands of dollars are waisted each semester. As a commuter school, the parking is atrocious. They oversell parking passes, so finding a spot in any parking area is impossible during the school day. You're better taking the Trax or the city bus. The university gym is run extremely poorly, with rules (especially on attire) changing constantly and is extremely overcrowded and not enjoyable for even the fitness enthusiasts. Housing is also a disaster here: its confusing, they constantly change who can live where, and can not keep up with the number of students. To resolve this problem, they are now kicking second years and up off of campus, and allowing only Freshman (except for a select few) to live on campus. None of the student services offered are student friendly, and while the classes might be good, you will be miserable going to school here. If you can look past student services, this school is fine, but if your experience outside of your education matters I'd recommend looking elsewhere.

Lied to by academic advisor about my eligibility for the career I wanted with the degree I pursued. I would have changed majors had I known I was pursuing a dead end. Classes within program were all the same and very generic - each class presented the same material, very little of which was information relevant to what employers would want. Was told almost every class period by one professor that we were being taught outdated material (kind of important to learn the latest software companies are using)and we had no hope of finding a career after graduating. Well, he was right.

The University of Utah is an excellent place to visit. Even if you have lived in Utah your whole life you should come and check out all of the events on campus. This includes if you were a student or not. The school is surrounded by beautiful mountains and has wonderful buildings and architecture. Go Utes!

Over all i give the university a 3. I'll be honest, i enrolled expecting to expand my knowledge in drawing and painting. Before the year started the Art department came up with the "foundations" classes because professors felt students were not coming in prepared enough for the material they were going to learn so the department came up with beginner level classes. At first, no big deal, my counsellor said you are only required to take 4 out of the 10 foundations classes. Great so i chose drawing, painting, ceramics, and digital media. Well then me and my other art major friends find out you have to take all 10, so visual art language, art history, photography, printmaking, sculpture, and abstract film. I had to find this out from my friend,not the Art department! So i say ok whatever maybe some of these classes will be fun. No, most of the teachers are disorganized or trying to shove too much material into a quarter class. The drawing and art language professors were always grouchy. Painting was the only class i thoroughly enjoyed, the professor was kind and funny. All of the other foundation classes couldn't hold my interest, and I'd get up and leave class if i felt i wasn't learning anything. Only 3 of 10 class did i actually enjoy and learn from. I felt it was a waste of money, thousands in student debt for classes i disliked and didn't learn from. The administration's office won't tell you or inform you on anything you need to complete or get done UNLESS YOU ASK AND ASK. This has been the most annoying thing. I was told i wouldn't be billed until 6 months after graduation for my student debt, and a month ago i got a letter saying i needed to start paying soon so i called my loan provider and they said you have to get a deferment of enrollment request and have a counsellor fill it out and send it to us. I had to jump through so many hoops to finally get someone to sign it. Also, with all the money the university has and all the construction they do youd think they'd tear down and build a new art building, it's a dark cement dungeon. I feel i flushed $3000 down the toilet and was made to dislike art. I won't be going for another year again. Pretty campus though
