Short review of my university

This univeristy offers very good education in the field of Industrial Design Engineering, the professors are professional but also very kind and understanding. The university also has well equipped laboratories and up to date and modern equipment. But also a few professors speak only basic level english and they prefer not to use english even in the english courses with erasmus students. The canteen of the university has very delicious food with different meniu everyday and the prices are super low (2-3 euro a meal). The accommodation is very cheap as well but the rooms could be cleaner.

Housing services

After your first year, you can choose a residence hall based on your preference for double, single or suite-style living or your preferred activity level. 

  • Forrer Hall—Four-story building with first-year students. Floors are divided by gender.
  • Thomson Hall—Apartment-style living units for upperclass students, with several environmentally friendly features.
  • Fourth Street Apartments—45 one- and two-bedroom units for upperclass students.
  • Rosenthal Apartment Complex—42-unit apartment complex for male Greek students.
Your residence hall room serves as an office, bedroom and living room, but there are other “living rooms” all over campus. 

Library services

Transylvania's library is home to more than 100,000 books and periodicals, with access to more than twice that through online books, journals and more. It's been newly renovated to be a comfortable space to study, research, work on group projects or just get away from the daily hustle to read.

ICT services

Transylvania makes it easy for you to stay connected with your classmates, your university records and accounts and the general goings-on on campus. You'll have access to a variety of technology tools and services that will make your college experience more streamlined and efficient. Whether you live on campus, commute or are studying abroad, the IT staff members are here to serve you.

Medical services

Health Services is located in the back lobby of Forrer Hall. A nurse practitioner is on campus Monday through Friday to provide evaluation and treatment for many common health needs. Services include physicals, flu vaccines, allergy shots, smoking cessation, blood pressure checks and more.

Campus life

Whether you live in a traditional residence hall, an apartment or one of our suite-style residences, living on campus can be a highlight of your college experience. Your residence halls are minutes away from classrooms and the library—not to mention great restaurants, coffee shops and night spots.

Accreditation

The university undergoes evaluations every seven years to maintain its status with the Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP) and the Kentucky Education Professional Standards Board.
