Great university located in the heart of Kansas City. I really have enjoyed the traveling and studying there. The quality of the staff is good and they make you feel welcome. The campus is nice to walk around and it's just a comfortable place to be. There's a lot to do on campus but also classes which are flexible and there's always an instructor available if you need.

I have been a student here for 3 years and it has been an excellent experience. I'm currently a senior in high school with no plans to become an engineer. After attending this college, I am well prepared to meet my future career goals. Their campus is very clean and the courses they offer are focused on engineering skills. They also have a great effort made in hosting internationally.

Due to my school you are able to live within your means and do what you want with your free time. You can get placements in just about any field you want and if you're willing to try.
