Hey, guys. I have almost completed my Pre-U and I'm interested in MMU's Computer Science with a specialisation in either Data Science or Software Engineering. Would like to know if someone who preferably is in their 2nd or 3rd year in either of those 2 respective specialisations could tell me about their experience in this university?
Eg. How are the lecturers? Are the facilities good? Is your specialisation particularly difficult? If so, why? Which subject in particular is difficult?
If you would prefer, you could pm me too about it.
Much thanks in advance.

Software Eng. here. I think you shouldn't decide first as you haven't learn the foundations of computer science, you might not have idea about what are those. My advice is ask lecturers what are those before you choose it. I heard mis-leading informations from seniors and even some of my friends picked the wrong one (not what they really liked).
So far the lecturers I met do not read slides. Some explains until you know. The current problem I met are more on not-so-straightforward slides than quality of lecture. Facilities wise, 1 of the lab is having i7 8700 16GB ram and nvme ssd, some are still upgrading. Lab internet speed is fast (Usually 100mbps, hardware limited) but wifi still needs improving, need login and those every time.
My specialization must understand what is it with practical example, else just plain memorizing words. Some lecturers are very deep researchers and might forgot we students do not understand what are the terms, in this case, you must ask, else you go home and don't understand what are those at all.
I don't think there are 'difficult subjects', it's all depend on a person. With new syllabus they are killing memorizing technique really hard, like you even need to explain to lecturers what you wrote to get attendance.
