My overall study experience at the University of Mauritius has been extremely challenging. From my perspective, some lecturers often come across as arrogant or ego-driven, and there were times when students felt openly threatened or intimidated. Mistakes, even those that arguably fall under the university’s responsibility, were sometimes met with penalties, and rules could feel inconsistent or decided on the fly. While the university rarely acknowledges its own oversights or technical glitches, students are almost always held strictly accountable for theirs. Experiencing this taught me resilience, vigilance, and how to navigate a system where the stakes feel unevenly distributed.
