I am student in the Computer Software Development course with SQA RAK, and I really enjoy the environment they have on campus, not only including academics but the student lifestyle and well-being as well. The campus offers a variety of activities and sports to indulge in, either in our free time or in competitions. All of the professors I have had so far have truly been helpful, friendly and knowledgeable and offer more than 1 unique way to ensure that the students understand what they have been taught. Every module of the course is simple and easy to understand even if you have not previously studied the same field as the course ;like myself.
