Students work closely with the faculty in a mentoring relationship throughout their academic program. This close relationship with the faculty is encouraged by a low student-faculty ratio, regularly scheduled meetings with faculty tutors, and the presence of the faculty living on campus. The curriculum provides a balance between didactic presentation of knowledge and student-centered learning activities. The faculty make extensive use of charts summarizing whole courses and individual lessons so that students quickly grasp the main points of each lesson and integrate them in the context of the discipline. These activities, which have been used with great success for many years at Maharishi University of Management, stimulate students' development of discriminative and analytic thinking, cooperation with others, and creative expression in writing, speaking and teaching, while enhancing students' overall enjoyment of their academic program.
