Nice campus and have a diversity of students. It id always crowded and lively at all time. Academically is nice and great. Cleanliness is great but sometimes the washroom is a little dirty during peak hours. Food price ok lahhh
Nice learning environment, good lecturer and student ratio. Students can always get quick response from lecturers or admins regarding any issues faced in campus. Sunway University is a learning institution that willing to spend big amount to upgrade their facilities either software or hardware. The school has its regular cleaning in every area in campus to make sure students and lecturers can study or work in a comfortable environment. The library of the campus is fantastic, large, quiet, lot of academic resources, cool and well managed, student can always get enough support from library to finish their project or assignment, there is also a nice place for student to prepare for their exam. Sunway University is located between sunway lagoon and sunway pyramid, students do not have to worry about food and entertainment, they can easily access to one of the famous shopping mall in Malaysia by canopy connecting campus and sunway pyramid.
I am a psychology degree student in Sunway University at Bandar Sunway. The study environment and facilities are top notch with good location and easy accessible to other places through BRT or canopy walk. Lecturers there are kind and friendly! There are many food options as well in campus and around campus. As a vegetarian myself, I find it easy to find vegetarian options in and around campus, not a problem.
