Polytechnic

'-': some equipment and manuals, that we study, are outdated. All buildings, except the main one, need to be repaired. Some teachers are incompetent in their subjects. ' ': Opportunities. A lot of opportunities. Large number of events are held at the university and if you will participate in them, you will develop yourself very much.
