Latest reviews of SamSTU
Anonymous review 05:26 25.02.2019I want to leave my impression about this university. It's better not to come here, it does not give any knowledge. Teachers take a break from work, and teach at a bad level. If you want real knowledge, go to other universities. The rating is in Russia. But in fact, everything is very bad here.
