Not only do students meet
at the University to learn their individual courses but the students from across
India and different parts of the world mingle together to share their culture and
tastes. "I belong to Kashmir and live in Faridabad while I undertake my
course in B.Sc., IT from MRIU." While she describes Kashmir as 'God's
own country', Yashasvi Tickoo is all praises for Faridabad where she lives.
"It is like learning new cultures when you get a chance to meet
students from all over the country and abroad," she says.
Max Ndundulanyembue
from Congo is enjoying the learning experience while pursuing his B.Sc." MRIU
is a home away from home." Chinedu Benjamin Elobi says," The food here
is spicy because back in our country in Nigeria, we mainly eat very bland food with few or negligible spices." Manav Rachna International
University organizes get-togethers, seminars so that students not only get a
chance to mingle with their colleagues while in classes but also do get a chance
to unwind at celebrations,says Dean Faculty of International Programmes, Dr.
Anil Sarin.

"Although language is our biggest problem, our friends at the Campus are very helpful and do their best to make us comfortable," says Moeba Mawangle Kevin from Congo who is pursuing his BBA (Global), and Barnabas Amisi who is pursuing his B.Sc. IT and has come all the way from Congo. Makuachukwu Ebuka, Uzowulu Amadi Kenneth Chinweikpe and Obodo Ugochukwu say inspite of the language problem they have beenable to make new friends from India and others who come from across international boundaries. Swamim Zaman who has come from Assam says, "For me the North Indian culture is entirely different from the East of India. Therefore it is learning more about the culture of my own country as well as other countries." He misses his fish which is one of the staple diets of the Assamese people. Amadi Kenneth Chinweikpe who belongs to Nigeria and Happiness Owelechi Omudu have made many friends while studying at MRIU and will take back memories to treasure once their courses are over."We often get a chance to dress in our native costumes, wear our coloured jewelry and show our Indian friends our national clothes which we wear back home," says Briedan Nsimba Muzembo from Congo and Fred George Otomba."Celebrations bring us closer together and we are able to get a glimpse of different cultures which truly is a learning experience," say Arushi Sapra from Faridabad and Chinedu Benjamin Elobi from Nigeria, Amadi Kenneth Chinweikpe, Onyije Rose and Fred George Otomba. Steeve Mululu is happy to be taking regular English lessons at MRIU. He lives in the hostel and finds the food spicy while comparing his food from Congo. Jake Massa also from Congo recalls the Christmas celebrations in his country and says, "Christmas is our biggest festival and we do miss the celebrations because here it is not celebrated in big style like Diwali," he says "I don't enjoy Indian vegetables but certainly enjoy the momos in Faridabad," he says with a smile. MRIU is a platform to acquire knowledge of different kind sand through different mediums -academics, sports and cultural interaction.
