University of Uyo - UNIUYO Speciality : Medicine And Surgery
programme: Medical Physiology

I do like the fact that Uniuyo has four campuses which gives the advantage of space to create facilities like Class blocks, halls, labs, etc. But it is a sad fact that these are not put in place.
Those we expect to rally the students and scream for the attention of the appropriate board set aside to oversee that these facilities are put in place are less concerned about it-The SUG. Even the Student Union Secretariat is an eye sore.
Few lecturers give in-depth lectures. I can point out a math lecturer that just comes in and solves questions on the board.
Now, let’s talk about the whiteboards. There is no whiteboard in Uniuyo that has not been tainted by a permanent marker or a dried market making it impossible to jot down notes. Leading to incomplete notes.
Our labs are dirty and out of apparatus and specimens such that we have to do theoretical answers for practical questions. We just write in a biology practical class.
There are insufficient desks for students and the class blocks are usually crowded.

There is no room for educational extracurricular activities, just lame politics.

My program is an interesting program to study but is not made interesting by some lecturers, some of the lecture venues are not conducive at all. The administration has made effort in providing certain equipment and facilities necessary for learning though not adequate. I’ll recommend my course to anyone only if an upgrade is done.

We are still doing general courses like MTH 121 and BIO 121, hopefully, I get more idea of what physiology is really about in college which starts next year.
Studying Physiology attracts all such hate and insults from lecturers. They regard us as a Knock off of MBBS. To them, we are the failures that couldn’t get. It’s always heartbreaking hearing these words from them daily.
The school environment is not always safe. There could be robbery or any sort of violence at any point in time. This mostly happens when we’re reading at night.
