The university is the best engineering school there is in Manila. Also, the institute is very inclusive of all types of students. Furthermore, the campus offers variety of engineering course. However, they need to include more programs outside of engineering.
Good experience overall. Smaller campus in Honolulu. The university has a range of programs from undergraduate to graduate. Professors are helpful overall, as are the staff. Students are diverse and there are number of clubs and a campus ministry.
This university has a quarterm system, which means that it follows four terms or semesters per year. If you are not a fast learner, then this university might not be for you. The department for social sciences, which currently called as Health Sciences, is nice. The professors are knowledgeable about the field they teach. However, I find some administrative staffs as less welcoming when it comes to students needs.
The Global Student Satisfaction Awards empower students across the globe to determine the best universities of 2025. Universities with a score above 4.0 (out of 5) in any of the 7 award categories, receive Badges of Excellence. Congratulations!
