Costly but friendly and supportive college environment.

Tips: Students should know that there is a scholarship but the scholarship amount didn't cover much of my expenses. The university is good, but not great, and the tuition is expensive. Fortunately, there are multiple on-campus part-time jobs that can help offset your monthly expenses. If you can get a job that allows you to work from home, that would be even better.

Likes (Safety): It is very safe in Roll. We don't need to worry about our safety. The college has university police who are available 24/7. They patrol all the areas, and there is no worry of getting afraid of some cultures. I have never seen them in my two years of stay.

Dislikes (Public transportation): There is no public transport at all. We need to get rides from our friends or seniors who have cars. It's like locally, they give you free rides, and if you are going out of town, you need to pay around 70 Dollars to go to the airport. Because the nearest airport is 110 smiles from Roll.

Master of Science in Engineering Management - Batch of 2024

Offered by Missouri University of Science and Technology

Decent and peaceful college environment.

Tips: I did not experience any cultural shift while studying at the Missouri University of Science and Technology. I received an international provost's scholarship, which helped to offset my expenses. I am satisfied with the university, especially the coursework. In addition, I was able to earn some extra money by working as a student teaching assistant. All kinds of events are organized by the university irrespective of nation. There are organizations for every nation they do celebrate everything. Roll is the safest city without any violence and gun culture. I have never been into any student clubs or communities which are not that great and interesting for me.

Dislikes (Indian Food): Rolla is a small city, so there aren't any Indian restaurants. There is one Indian grocery store, but it has a limited selection, so you have to travel all the way to St. Louis to get what you need. There are a lot of American fast food restaurants, and you can get basic vegetables at Walmart.

One of the best core department college.

Tips: Missouri S&T has limited part-time opportunities, and its tuition fees are higher compared to other schools. However, it is very popular in core departments like civil engineering, mechanical engineering, mining engineering etc. Offers strong hands-on practice with good faculty. The faculty is very approachable, and friendly and will help you in any situation. Overall, I am pretty satisfied with the course, college and the country.

Missouri University of Science and Technology is good but can be better.

Tips: It can be tough to enrol on your preferred courses due to high demand or availability, which can be frustrating sometimes so it's smart to have alternatives. There will be student activities about which you'll be notified through email, just keep an eye out for them. I got a scholarship but I'm not sure if they're still offering as much or anything at all. Finding a part-time depends on the competition. Your chances are the best if you're one of the early applicants. Part-time positions fill out quickly. Roll is a peaceful city. You can hang out at the library if it gets boring. The low cost of living is definitely a plus.

Likes (Safety): The city is quite safe. You won't see a lot of people around except for department stores etc. You can walk to places without worrying about your safety. Most of the people are friendly and willing to help. Since most of the students live with their friends, I'm sure there's nothing to worry about.

Dislikes (Public transportation): Public transportation is not available. Students usually carpool or get rides from other students for some amount. I am not sure about Uber's availability 24/7. But I did take it a couple of times and didn't face any problems or you could get a friend who has a car and share the expenses for it.
