We are bringing people from the

industry into the classroom so that

our students learn more. Stamford

is a truly international university,

so students have the opportunity to

learn in a multicultural environment.

One of Stamford’s strengths is that

we engage students in an ‘interactive

classroom’ – a philosophy that is applied

to everything that we do. We share

ideas and thoughts -- holistic learning

develops during class discussions.

Dr. Samson, Lecturer

Our new concentration in Business

Information Technology fills the gap

between IT knowledge and business

knowledge bridging the relationship

between them; whereas our

concentration in Information

Technology focuses on programming

and network architecture. Students

can choose which areas are suitable

for their capabilities and interests – but

no matter what they decide, we are

here to support them throughout

their program of choice. We offer

a supportive learning environment.

Dr. Asvaruk, Lecturer

I’m sure I’ve chosen the right field of study and the right

university. Stamford offers the IT program that I love,

in a great environment, with friendly teachers, and scholarships.

The most important thing is – I’m doing what I love. It took

me some times to realize that I love IT. But it is worth

spending time trying to find what you love, then go for it

the best you can.

At Stamford, if you study hard enough, and give respect to

your teachers, everybody can achieve their goals -- anybody

can be Einstein.I used to think there was too much homework,

but then, I saw the work it was for the teachers grading

my assignments. I realized, the more assignments they gave

us, the more work they had to grade they evaluated every single

piece of work we submitted, every single line of the code we wrote.

They have become my role models. I appreciate their hard work, and

I want to do the same.
