Help students more about finding their interests.
I am a sophmore in my university. So far it has been good but i wish that we could have more couses about our programme such as genetics, molecular biology etc. to make us decide our interests or domain better.
My School Review
My university has made a name for itself in Turkey and offers students a very high quality education opportunity.After graduation, you can get a job in big companies and improve yourself.Most of our university's professors completed their education abroad and tell us, their students, everything they learned and want us to experience the events they experienced.
ı need better education
The teachers and academic staff are very good, but unfortunately the quality of the students at the school is low, which affects the quality of education provided by the school. Apart from these, there should not be differences in opportunities among the students of such an expensive school. Every student should receive the best quality education. As a result, they all pay the same amount of money.
