One of the public universities in Malaysia, I love the culture and environment of the university. I only feel that they should improve more in international student fields where very limited accommodation and differentiation between local and international students.
Been there for almost a year and have absolutely nothing to complain. The teaching methods, as well as the teachers are very comprehensible.
Overall, the experience was good. The online learning offered me the possibility to keep studying while working abroad, and attending the course. Some classes were delivered in a seminar format which could be tiring to follow, but all in all, the teachers where supporting and flexible.
