Student Information and Services
Guidance and Career Education
The Academic Office offers students curriculum assistance, career information, and guidance in the personal, vocational, and academic aspects that may impede the student’s attaining a college education. Advisors assist students individually in making appropriate educational, vocational, and personal choices. The office coordinates assisted institutional services for students with special needs.
Course selection is critical to student success; therefore, students should make an appointment with either their program director or registrar to confirm proper course selection prior to registration.
Previously taken courses and grades earned will be reviewed and analyzed for proper course placement at Polytechnic University Miami Campus.
Career education awareness is presented at workshops, seminars, colloquiums and receptions with notables. Student publications may also feature stories on career opportunities.
Internship and Mentor Programs
Students may be able to participate in local and national work-related experiences pertinent to their course of study. Career awareness and placement activities are incorporated in student life as a pre-step to applying for a summer internship. Internships are optional, but preferred experience for students.
Students are eligible for mentor assistance as another form of a personal career guidance opportunity. Community leaders and business professionals collaborate with students on a one-on-one basis as needed, or present vital information at open forums on campus.
Identification Cards
An identification card (Campus Card) is issued to students during the registration period. The identification card is needed for students to obtain access to the facilities and services at Polytechnic University Miami Campus.
Activities and Organizations
There are opportunities for students to reinforce their curricular experience by participating in curricular related activities such as colloquium, workshops, seminars and one-on-one meetings with notable community leaders.
Campus organizations focus on the adult learner who may be employed and offers a mature level of activity. Events are designed to foster greater career opportunities as well as recognize students for their academic achievement.
Computer Ownership
To make teaching and learning equally accessible, all students are requested to own or lease a laptop computer compatible with the University’s system.
