<p>UConn Business is taking off. Investment banks, like Goldman Sachs, are beginning to take notice of the school. The Finance Society in the school is known to be one of the best student organizations at any university in the country, and is assisting in the effort to bring in i-banks. Right now the school is in transition, looking for a new dean. The ranking will not jump until a couple years after the new dean is in place. Expect in 3 to 5 years UConn Business to be in the top 50 in both the MBA and undergrad rankings.</p>
<p>Just curious omni, Who do you plan on working after grad. omni? and whom did u intern for?</p>
<p>I'll shortly be working as an actuarial intern for either a Hartford or NYC insurance/consulting firm.</p>
<p>Oh, dorms in north campus and west campus, are in dire need of a renovation. The floors are cracked, and it feels like a prision. However if you walk next door to northwest or alumni, the doors are oh so much better. I would say the food is adequate here. I love Towers, South, and McMahon dining halls. However through the middle of the semester, I cant stand it anymore. I definetly use my points in the student union a lot more by the end.</p>
<p>One this that is weak is that there are large classes sizes. Most of my classes are lectures with more than 150 kids in them. However there are discussion sections for lecture classes, but those are usually taught by TA's.</p>
<p>i totally agree with you. I guess it is the tradeoff for attending a large research univ. My friends at Yale and Brown tell me their intro classes are in the same size range. When I take a Yale psych class, I had about 200 kids in my class. Even the econ. class in front of me was packed with 200 kids.</p>
