The library has outstanding facilities and resources, and it has both a quiet space and a collective space. The classes have a small ratio of teachers to students, which makes students active and engaged. The outdoor park outside of University is peaceful and beautiful to relax during the summer or break time. The students' union and careers service are devoted and dedicated to enhancing students' experiences. The lecturers have strong debate skills and effective teaching style. read more

The university seems good, but definitely needs to manage timetables and the assessment process for medical engineering students. Administrators need to add more lectures to accommodate student queries. read more
