Great learning experience
My university journey was both engaging and highly practical. I appreciated the hands-on approach to learning, especially the labs and projects that simulated real world scenarios like penetration testing and digital forensics analysis. the faculty were knowledgeable and supportive, always encouraging innovation and critical thinking. While I gained valuable skills, I feel more opportunities for industry collaborations or internships could enhance the program farther. Overall, it prepared me well for my career goals as a digital forensics investigator.
My studying experience in Yarmouk University
I am a new graduate of Yarmouk University, i have studied physics for four and a half years, faculty of science, i would say that i am dissatisfied in my overall enrollment experience in my college, careless administrators, unclear system, poor teaching, over saturated of students, the infrastructure and building facilities are severely outdated and in disrepair, even the whole student community i don't recommend, of it wasn't up to my self learning i wouldn't have learnt much in such college, hope this gives a good perspective and preview before deciding to enroll too!
