“I don’t think the University should offer courses only in Science and
Technology because it needs a wider variety of courses so people can
have other options and widen their field of knowledge. Even in whichever
course they do they can have wider knowledge, not just on that course but
other courses just the same; not just limited to science and technology.”
Daniel Brooks, Year 1
Faculty of The Built Environment
In a vox pop on Wednesday, April 19 students on the Papine
and Montego Bay campuses were asked the following
question. Should the University offer courses only in science
and technology? Why or Why not? Read on to see their
responses.
“No I don’t think the University should offer courses only in science and
technology. Why? There are students, both local and international that are
not interested in majoring in science and technology; they are more for
the arts programme or the built environment programme, just to name
a few. So I don’t think the University should offer courses only in science
and technology.”
Jordan Hamilton, Year 2
College of Health Sciences
“No. I don’t think it should be only science and technology because
the University is already known for its business courses with School
of Business Administration as well as the School of Hospitality and
TourismManagement. The Faculty of Education is also another big
faculty so if they only offer those courses, they would limit the choices
that students will have and also the amount of students coming into the
University.”
