Student-Faculty Interaction

All faculty members at Winthrop are first, and foremost, dedicated to their students’ learning. Students learn first-hand how experts think about and solve practical problems by interacting with faculty members inside and outside of the classroom. At Winthrop, faculty members are students’ role models and mentors.

Compared to their peers across the board on the 2008 NSSE, Winthrop first-year and senior students indicated a significant amount more involvement in:

• Discussing grades or assignments with an instructor

• Talking about career plans with a faculty member or advisor

• Working with faculty members on activities other than coursework

Why is Winthrop University so strong in the area of student-faculty interaction?

• Winthrop University emphasizes student participation in faculty research and provides significant funding to support such participation

• Faculty teaching effectiveness and engagement with students are major factors in their evaluation
