The university is great with strong renowned faculty.
Tips: Before joining this college, students should ensure that the academic experience, curriculum, and courses align with their career goals. Students should also research the campus life to find out what activities are available that can help them get involved and make friends. Students should also check the dorm essentials to ensure that they have everything they need. Finally, students should think about financial planning, as scholarships, expenses, and tuition fees can significantly help. Students should also look into academic support, counselling, and health services.
Likes (Quality of faculty): I'm giving the faculty a rating of 5. This reflects the expertise, teaching skills, and dedication of the faculty. Faculty members are well-versed in their subjects, have significant research contributions, and are passionate about teaching. This combination can greatly enhance the learning experience.
Dislikes (Internships): There are several reasons why I rated internships low. First, there was a lack of guidelines due to minimal supervisor support. Second, the tasks assigned were not aligned with my field and career goals. Third, the work environment lacked a friendly or professional culture. Fourth, there were limited learning opportunities, which resulted in few chances to learn new skills. Finally, the compensation was inadequate, with low or no pay for the work done.
