- Likes:
- It was the best university for Computer Science out of the ones I got accepted into and it was a very appealing campus. Additionally, its proximity to Boston, the education hub was also a deciding factor.,
- I love the campus and the teachers. Being recognised for its food has also been a plus point of my time here. I think I like almost everything about this college!
- Dislikes:
- I think everything I have come across till now, I have really liked in my University. However, if I had to think about it, I love walking but for people who might not, the campus is quite huge. Not everyone likes walking, rather running to classes so if you are not one to "go on a walk" when you have to attend a class, make sure your schedule does not make you run around different areas of campus like mine did in the first semester of freshman year!
Campus Life:
The campus is huge and the infrastructure is commendable. Being a public university helps get federal funds which ensures the maintenance of the campus infrastructure. We have a lot of extracurricular activities too! The gym includes activity areas for various sports, such as basketball, badminton, table tennis, and squash, as well as activities such as boxing, pilates, spin classes, etc. The campus offers numerous opportunities for a student to thrive.
Hostel:
All first year students are required to stay on campus where they can choose rooms that consist of different options like a single, a double (2 people in one room), triple (3 people in one room) and a quad (4 people in one room). Usually it's the first 3 room choices that are mostly available but in situations where a lot more people (apart from first years) opt for on-campus housing, they might add quads too! Every dorm consists of a public kitchen which has a microwave, oven, fridge and stove. The dorms also have study areas as well as recreation areas with things like a pool table or a table tennis table to relax!
- Likes:
- I needed a global PMP certificate to stay updated in the industry, not specific to only India market.,
- Curriculum, separate individual certifications within this major certification, syllabus vastness, faculty interactions, combination of live and recorded sessions, conducting live proctored tests, interactive & impromptu project creation & submissions.
- Dislikes:
- The limitations of Placement program could have been elaborated well in advance. It would be beneficial for university to provide more detailed information about placement rates, alumni success stories, and resources for job searching to help students feel more confident about their post-certifications plans. It can be little bit frustrating not knowing what opportunities are available after getting the certificate or how to access them. Without proper guidance or transparency from the career services department, students may feel uncertain about their future prospects. If college doesn't have strong connections with companies or provide resources for networking and job hunting, students may struggle to find employment in their field of study.
Campus Life:
It was more of an online program; however, as UMASS Alumni, we were invited to attend all the campus programs and events whenever we visited the University. Yet to visit Massachusetts.
Hostel:
NA
- Likes:
- One of the key aspects for me was the scholarship along with the great brand name of the institution. The compsci & compeng. programs were also one of the best in the country with regards to public universities.,
- The courses available in the engineering department are really diverse and they allow students to branch out to different fields in technology. The faculty is also very knowledgeable and lab facilities are of high caliber
- Dislikes:
- The location is really isolated and is inaccessible especially for international students. It takes a minimum of 2 hours to reach campus from the nearest airport which is in Boston. Being a vegetarian, the food options in the canteen are also limited.
Campus Life:
There are more than 600 clubs to choose from. They range from sports, fine arts, debate, art, academics, adventure sports and much more. The Du Bois library is the largest student library at 28 floors. WIFI is available all around campus. There is a recreational turf as well as a recreational gym Centre along with basketball and badminton courts.
Hostel:
I lived on campus for 3 years and it cost me around $5000 per semester as I opted for a single room. Double rooms will be approx. half of that. Finding off-campus housing is hard due to the rural nature of the campus.
- Likes:
- One of the top universities for data science. They offer data science specialization along with master's.
Campus Life:
Campus life is good, infrastructure is good. There are a lot of resources on campus that can help us study. There are a lot of organizations and clubs for your interests. Wi-Fi is not very good. Libraries are really good.
Hostel:
There is no accommodation on campus for master's students. Rather there is a resource crunch in Amherst. But I was able to get a very convenient place off campus. Rents are high.
- Likes:
- It has a really good data analytics program. And the professors are very knowledgeable here as well.,
- Good peer group, amazing professors, it is located in an amazing place and there good ambience as well. I have an amazing friend group and we are all encouraging and supporting each other at all times.
- Dislikes:
- I don’t have anything to dislike as of much but one thing I can say is that it is pretty secluded as the university is located in a remote town called Amherst, it would have been nice if the university was in a city or if I had joined a university in a city
Campus Life:
It has everything on campus WiFi, huge sports facilities, a gym and lots of research facilities as well.
Hostel:
I stay in a 2 bed one bath apartment with 4 people and rent is around 1950 per month for the 4 of us.
Hostel:
The on campus housing is a bit costly. The price is around $11,200 per year (?8,00,000/year).
This university is one of the good universities for Masters in Data Science. It is also close to where my spouse works.
Hostel:
yes i live on campus. my dorms are great. we just dont have personal bathrooms. otherwise its perfect
i am a biology major and my university is closer to Boston which has immense opportunities for me.
