BA ENGLISH WITH COMPARATIVE LITERATURE

When I passed my high school, my only goal was to graduate with an English (Hons) degree and get a well-paid job. However, when I look back at Garden City University it has played an important role in not just giving me the best time as a student but also molded my personality as well as my professors helped me gain a different perspective in life, which I am sure would have not happened, if it were any other place. The faculty for the department of “Indian and Foreign Languages” is second to none. They are highly knowledgeable, patient and one of the most awesome things that I noticed during my time at GCU is that my faculty never imposed the interpretations of any (literature pieces) texts on the students, they solely explained what the text meant and left the creativity of students to interpret it, so that we have insight to various possibilities of what a writing can offer. The best part of the University is its internship in the last semester and the professors helped me thoroughly to get one that suits the course I opted for, which not only helped me to gain experience in my field, but I also learned how to deal with people in a corporate world.

My experience at Garden City University is a memory of learning and expertise gathered to cherish for a lifetime. Student life here is fruitful and enjoyable as well. GCU - a place encompassing all infrastructural, clean and eco-friendly environments - is not just for incredible academics, but also for a successful career. GCU showed me what a professional world is and rooted my knowledge and confidence to have myself equipped with problem-solving skills. Our department and faculty members immensely focused on presentational and interpersonal skills, motivating us to express our opinions alongside academics with an international standard of establishing coherence among and in between each student, irrespective of national and cultural diversities. I am solely thankful to GCU, especially our beloved professors for being a milestone in my transformation and helping me turn into a better professional.

My favorite element of Garden City University is its faculty members and learning resources. Being knowledgeable, inspiring, and approachable, my instructors provided students with much guidance and mind-opening perspectives. Their dedication to education helps us develop academic interests and grow intellectually. In addition, various learning resources, such as the Library, and Students Clubs encourage the students to find and explore their field of interest. These resources are successful in assisting us in overcoming academic as well as practical challenges. As a student graduating with the highest honor, feel proud and well-prepared because GCU has given me the essential tools for more academic excellence in the future.

Throughout the entire time, since the admission at GCU, I've experienced the most productive and self-oriented days of my life. Engaging and informative academic sessions tied up with more extracurricular sessions and activities were really encouraging the students to be aware of the surrounding world around them. I've personally felt that I've become more self-sufficient through various orientation programmes and workshops initiated by the University. As I belong to the language department, I've had a great time interacting with various talented and renowned personality from the field of literature. Also, it would be incomplete without mentioning my supporting and motivating faculties, who always work for their students and overall wellbeing. Being a student, the opportunity and chances of rising up effectively are vast in GCU. I strongly believe that the center aim of the University is to make their students capable of facing the true world and teaching them to overcome their circumstances, so that they never fail in life. GCU brings out talents that are buried deep inside us and guides us in using them in the best way.
