The student-to-professor ratio at CIT stands at an impressive 1 to 15, emphasizing our commitment to fostering a conducive and personalized learning environment. This ratio signifies that for every 15 students, there is dedicated attention and support from one professor. This intentional design ensures that each student has ample opportunities for individualized interaction, mentorship, and engagement with faculty members. By maintaining a low student-to-professor ratio, we prioritize the quality of education, allowing for more meaningful and impactful interactions between students and professors. This approach contributes to a collaborative and enriching academic experience, where students can actively participate in discussions, receive personalized guidance, and benefit from a close-knit educational community.

The daily academic schedule for both bachelor and master students typically spans approximately 4 hours.

The condensed schedule is designed to optimize concentration and productivity, fostering a balanced and effective approach to academic pursuits.

It is an opportunity for focused study, additional support, and the chance to demonstrate improved understanding of the course material. Successful completion during the makeup period ensures that students can progress in their academic journey without undue delay. It’s important for students to be aware of the specific policies and procedures related to makeup exams or assessments outlined by their institution.
