I'm currently cruising through my fourth semester of Bachelor's in Computer Engineering—what a great journey and learning experiences I'm going through! This degree isn't just about learning to code or understanding hardware; it's a blend of both. From figuring out tricky algorithms to tinkering with circuits, every class teaches us something new about how technology works. One of the best parts is the hands-on experience we get. Whether it's working on real-world projects or experimenting in labs, we're constantly honing our skills in coding, hardware design, and problem-solving. The faculty here are not just teachers; they're mentors who guide us every step of the way. They're always available for help, whether it's inside or outside the classroom. Moreover, being part of this program opens doors to various opportunities for personal and professional growth. There are plenty of extracurricular activities and societies our interests and expand our horizons, like IEEE CUI which I am a part of helped me to network with professionals in the field. The staff is incredibly supportive, and the dynamic learning environment encourages collaboration and innovation. With experienced faculty, hands-on learning, and a vibrant campus life, the Bachelor's in Computer Engineering program at COMSATS Islamabad provides the perfect platform to excel in this field and prepare for a successful career ahead.

I as a Computer Engineering student having almost passed the eighth semester at COMSATS University Islamabad, I love to say that I have been surrounded by a dynamic learning environment which is equally full of challenges and opportunities. Being an Overseas Pakistani from Qatar, I arrived at this idea to both rediscover my cultural roots and to craft a unique career path in technology.

CUI sets itself apart by providing education in a manner that it provides both the theoretical side and the practical side and makes it coherent. Each day we must deal with the new concepts that aren't always easy but worth your time to understand, whether it's algorithms or hardware design. This unique way of combining "learning by doing", not only teaches us but also equips us with the problem-solving skills which are vital in real world situations. The key component of my educational pathway has been the positive help and advice provided by the Professors. Professors are not simply educators whose work involves teaching, but mentors constantly maintaining their readiness to solve issues and provide insights, not only inside the classroom but also outside. Their experience, discipline and will keep the student from getting bogged down with academic issues by boosting their self-confidence, calmness, and endurance. In addition to that, the experience of learning in COMSATS is exceptional. By using different techniques as part of field research and lab work, students can see the role of learned knowledge from the theory in real life and sharpen their practical skills. Not only does this active participation makes our education process more meaningful but also it gives us the chance to obtain important skills which will be valuable to us in our professional future. COMSATS facilitates community living where the students not only do the academic activities, but the students also have a platform to explore their interests. Participating in extra-curricular activities, for instance, by joining clubs like IEEE, allows for personal development and professional networking. This merit of the university is the one that leads to the creation of an environment that encourages mutual collaboration and innovative work, and that is where self-exploration are practiced.

My name is Hadiy Sajjad and I am a student at COMSATS. Transitioning to COMSATS from the UAE for my Computer Engineering degree has been a fulfilling experience. Despite the challenges of balancing software and hardware studies, the supportive environment provided by professors and peers has made the journey enjoyable.

COMSATS' emphasis on practical learning through labs has been invaluable. It's here that we apply theoretical knowledge to real-world projects, honing our skills in project planning and hardware implementation. Moreover, the encouragement to think globally and embrace lifelong learning prepares us for the fast-paced world of technology.

In my 8th semester, I'm grateful for the supportive community and the guidance of my professors, and I'm excited for the opportunities that lie ahead.
