What They Are Saying
One of the things I love the most about Rajiv Gandhi University of Science and Technology is the emphasis placed on different learning styles beyond the classroom; from team based learning activities with our classmates to studying medicine here, you really feel like the experience and learning is tailored to suits your needs. The Faculty and administration here are constantly working directly with us in order to make the medicine program the best it can be for us as students. I am constantly impressed by how earnestly our feedback is incorporated into the day to day student life. The modules within the college exemplify this idea not only academically, but also socially, by providing a sense of ‘home’ while on campus. I strongly recommend the university for those who want to be a good doctor.
