MS in Marketing/MBA - Batch of 2027

3.8

Come with a certain level of preparedness.

Tips: What you should know is that the campus is very inclusive, engaging and there are resources for almost all your needs. Professors are attentive and approachable which was reassuring and classes are conducted in an interactive format. Lots of career fairs and networking sessions happen here. There is a safe and secure feeling here as students are quite united and there is efficient campus security. Any concerns are addressed and taken seriously and patrols take place too especially after dark. I've not had any major experiences here.

Master of Science in Management Information Systems - Batch of 2026

4.0

Good experience and exposure.

Tips: Education here is practical and theoretical. Assignments are formulated in a way that allows you to explore your creativity and niche but be careful in avoiding plagiarism and other academic misdemeanours here. The culture shift was more apparent in the first two weeks or so after which things became more natural. The city has a lot to offer so I spend my weekends exploring and meeting people with similar interests.

Exploring my potential.

Tips: Coming to this university has helped me come out of my shell and participation and engagement are highly encouraged. There aren't any real restrictions both within and outside of classrooms so try to explore as much as you can in the time you have here. Some of the seminars ive attended have been truly eye opening and I would suggest people to take all advantage of being here.

Things here work a certain way.

Tips: I found people here helpful and accepting and things in the university and the city are mostly student centric. Didn't get any scholarships but some of my peers have based on their eligibility criteria. Relatively grading can take some time to truly get the hang of but the teaching is supportive and I have been met with understanding and patience. Pretty satisfied.

Master of Science in Data Science - Batch of 2026

3.9

Been learning a lot here.

Tips: I chose to come and pursue my education here as the programme seemed promising and I have been very passionate about working in data Science. The alumni network has been more helpful than I anticipated. The professors are well known in their respective fields. The campus is kind of far but the community is fun.

Dislikes (Part time work): Part time work barely exists here for those from abroad. There are some available on campus which get filled fast so it makes things nearly impossible. You will have to look for research work or lab work that pays if you're looking for a side hustle as solely relying on campus part time jobs can be very tricky.
