My academic experience in the university

The class scheduling in the university was poor as post graduate students and undergraduate students often clash due to lack of classrooms and poor class scheduling. Also the unconcerned attitude of some of the lecturers towards attending class (often skipping classes at will without prior notices to the students). Academic activities was further interrupted by lecturer strikes due to poor working conditions and pay. However, the school has a pool of well trained professors that has in-depth knowledge in their respective fields

A good school for social science courses.

Tansian university is a private university located in umunya, Anambra state named after Most Reverend Iweni Tansi. Although a faith based school, it also encouraged students social life.Tansian university isn't overpopulated and that enables the lecturers to reach out to students personally. its easy to know which student is being excellent and who needs an extra hand.Tansian university offers a wide range of courses from applied sciences, social sciences, law and many more . A good university to study BSc Mass communication and that's what i studied.

Accomodations

Accomodation facilities are not enough with poses a significant threat for students this makes the private off campus housing expensive and too exorbitant to access. Transportation facilities is something that I must commend
