My Uni has a lot of potential, full of international and multicultural persons. Appropriate facilities and equipments, there are some areas that could be improved for example the university cafeteria. Also there are some cool areas like the amazing garden.Photography Studios, Green Screen room, Library, Drawing, Letterpress studios, super clean bathrooms and classrooms and more amazing things. Maybe one of the best things is all the exhibitions from students around the campus. Also we have so many courses and interesting events goin around but tricky to find. It’s really good Located and with many places in the near to go for a snack later -also spacious with all the tools we need to create. When it comes to online and digital services we need a bit more of structure when it comes to deliver information to all students. ( Student Service )
