Faculty
The university�s faculty is known for its expertise and dedication, creating a highly engaging and enriching learning environment. With cutting-edge facilities and resources, the education provided is top-notch. I�ve been fortunate to learn from incredibly talented and passionate educators who show a deep commitment to their fields of study.
Over crowded
Classes were overcrowded, which can be demotivating when starting your career. It is quite easy to get lost in the University and there isn't much guidance. Some classes and professors are really helpful and caring, others not so much. I advice anyone who joins to form a good study group and find supportive people to make it through.
