This course is really very promising in the world, especially in renewable energy field. I am very satisfied with the study experience here, though this year is end up with covid 19. But I think it will be better if more experiment or more lab research are integrated in the course.

The courses are challenging and interesting. The overall course structure is well organised with acceptable difficulty step between years. A lot of course options available. Good lab works. The only issue is that student demonstrators in the most of courses are totally unreliable and unprepared. read more

Like all things in life, there are ups and downs. Some of the professors and staff I've had over the last few years have been wonderful and try to help you achieve your dream marks. Others do not care or seem to not care about how you do or if you even understand their course. read more
