| Before we give you all the details about NC State, we'd like to talk about the University as a whole. Since its founding in 1887, NC State has established itself as a dynamic academic community. If you choose to enter NC State this year, you will be part of an academic community of twenty-nine thousand students from fifty states and one hundred different countries who have chosen to study at one of the nation's outstanding universities.
Our beautiful campus hosts a great diversity of people, programs, and excitement. But don't let our size worry you. We're sure you will feel right at home and welcome here.
Students select NC State as their home for four years for a variety of reasons: its strong academics, excellent reputation, low cost, career advantages, prospering Raleigh/Triangle location, and social opportunities. |
| NC State is one of the nation's most dynamic research universities. It is fourth in the nation in attracting corporate research. Moreover, our professors are not only dedicated teachers but are also among the top research scientists and scholars in their fields. Their work creates a spirit of intellectual adventure on campus, in classrooms, and in laboratories. These professors bring unique knowledge and special enthusiasm into the classroom. NC State currently has a faculty to student ratio of one to fourteen.
