BS Aerospace Engineering - Batch of 2026

3.0

Culturally diverse and vibrant.

Tips: There were a few cultural shifts I experienced, but I don't think they were university-related. You can apply for scholarships by sending the university an email while applying, stating that you are requesting a scholarship based on financial hardship or grade merit.

Likes (Safety): The campus is generally in a very safe area. There are usually no issues or concerns happening on campus. The police are stationed in various locations on campus for a quick response. At night, police vehicles patrol the area on and around campus. We also have a special type of police called "UB-police".

Dislikes (Part time work): The university has a high acceptance rate for international students, so most on-campus jobs are already taken by Master's students. Consequently, there are almost no open campus placement jobs due to the large number of applicants.

BS Computational Linguistics - Batch of 2026

3.1

Internship drives and company showcase events are not very helpful.

Tips: I transferred from Manipal University, so the transition was very sudden and hectic. The weather is completely different, and the people and their cultures are also different. While campus options are limited, the food is generally healthy. There is a good selection of Indian food options in the dining centres on Thursdays, and there are also Indian restaurants nearby. The university is cool, hectic, yet uncertain. This new life provides a lot of exposure and is a very good learning experience.

Likes (Safety): There are campus security cars patrolling the area constantly. The police are also very active. Besides that, the area is quiet, and I feel there are many students who tend to stay indoors. Also, if any crime is reported, we receive immediate email notifications from the university, which makes the campus feel safe.

Dislikes (Internships): There is very little guidance, though there are workshops. Advising is average, and the internship drives and company showcase events are not helpful. While internships are available in my field, they are mostly off-campus, which is not very helpful overall.

MS Engineering Science (Artificial Intelligence) - Batch of 2026

4.2

Stressful, but very vibrant college life.

Tips: With the help of my seniors and some new friends I found here I transformed myself into an independent and happy person. Unfortunately, there are no scholarships available at my university; however, I am quite satisfied with my experiences.

Likes (Public transportation): It's located within the city boundaries making everything easily accessible. While we can use college transportation it's a one time fee whereas we pay for public transportation on a semester basis. Public transportation is convenient and affordable for everyone.

Dislikes (Student Life): I regularly attend classes and network with my peers. I appreciate the campus infrastructure and alumni support. My university hosts various CS workshops and competitions and I am a member of the Indian Student Association.

MS Computer Science and Engineering - Batch of 2025

3.7

The campus is diverse and welcoming.

Tips: The Computer Science department is challenging but worth it. Students in the Systems track will face tough projects. The department takes a serious stance on AI usage, with AI strictly prohibited in projects and assignments. Teaching Assistant support is available for projects.

MS Pharmacology - Batch of 2026

4.0

The University at Buffalo is an all-rounder, for sure.

Tips: I would suggest people enrolling in this course to be well prepared in advance, since the course isn't taught from the basics. If you're confident with the subject you've chosen, I believe it's going to be no less than a smooth ride for you. I am absolutely in love with the student life at the university. We get a lot of time to play, go gym or engage in activities apart from our classes. The people there are so hill and they are very open-minded. I like hanging out with people and having a good time once I'm done with my classes.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): I've heard people work good jobs related to pharmacology, such as being a clinical research associate or a clinical pharmacologist. I don't have an exact idea of how many people were selected for those kinds of jobs, but I've heard people manage to find jobs.
