A living-learning community is an environment where students with similar interests, scholarships, or majors live on a dedicated floor in a residence hall. Students involved build strong friendships and campus connections that help them find success in all areas of college life.
Students in the West Campus STEM community are interested in physics, engineering, math, and astronomy. They share common courses and have opportunities to explore professions in their field. Community members also have access to faculty and peer mentors as well as academic success coaches that will help develop skills beneficial both in and out of the classroom. West Campus STEM is for incoming freshmen and incoming/returning sophomore students.
