This semester is a bit complex as we are moving towards the challenging learning phase of the program,
plus the semi online pattern of classes somehow disturbed the learning process.
We have six major subjects in our semester course for this semester, including which are Food Packaging,
Food Engineering, Marketing and Agribusiness, Nutrition and Dietetics, Poultry and Egg Processing, Fruits
and Vegetables processing.
1) Food Packaging by Dr. Sadia:
Food Packaging was quite interesting for me. I came to know about many things relates to food about
which I was unaware at first. Secondly, the instructor was new to us. We all mates were quite afraid of
the behavioral feedback regarding the instructor provided by previous teachers and seniors but I found
her very cool and supportive teacher. Her course coverage and teaching methodology is great. She is very
punctual in getting things done on time.
2) Food Engineering by Dr. Rafiq:
I found Food Engineering as the most difficult subject of this semester. The teaching methodology and
instructor is new to us. Secondly, the online system is quite problematic in understanding the concept via
screens as this experience is quite new to us. Online system is quite hectic when it comes to solving
numerical problems. The last thing which is required in this course is the usage of language by instructor
while teaching. Using blend of language would be highly helpful for us, as the foreign accent and the
personality is all new to us at the course.
3) Marketing and Agribusiness by Sir. Wahab Nazir:
Marketing and Agribusiness is also the most interesting subject of this semester. The teaching
methodology and instructor involving every student in discussions is quite good when it comes to better
understanding concepts. The lecture content and daily life example methodology adopted by instructor
is also the best thing regarding the subject. Instructor is very friendly and supportive too, which makes
this course desirable for learning.
4) Nutrition and Dietetics by Sir Waqas Asghar:
Nutrition and Dietetics is quite difficult course when it comes to memorizing concepts and theories
regarding the course. There are a lot of things which are hard to memorize or revise sometimes, as this
course covers a wide area of studies. The best thing about this course is the cooperative instructor. He
answers every question. He always focuses on learning outcomes instead of traditional learning methods
of grades and performance, which is quite impressive and beneficial in long term for students. The thing
which is missing in this course is timely assessment of students. Assignments and activities should be
given, so that we can minimize the burden during final examinations and maximize the performance.
5) Poultry and Egg Processing by Mam Aqsa Akhtar:
Poultry and Egg Processing is also one of the interesting courses of this semester. The instructor helps and
supports every student in every possible way. She is very helpful and supportive. This courses is quite
interesting when it comes to understanding things and concepts related to poultry. The teaching
methodology is excellent. The best thing about the instructor is, as she does timely assessment and lowers
burden of assignments and projects etc. at the end of semester. She is very punctual in getting things
done on time. She maintains balance between class environment and learning and we enjoy the time in
class, which makes this course more interesting.
6) Fruits and Vegetables Processing by Sir. Waqas Asghar:
This course is quite interesting as we are understanding the concepts regarding the most used and healthy
food commodity in daily life, i.e. fruits and vegetables. The knowledge grip of instructor and using
language blend makes this course very interesting and easy to understand. The instructor’s methodology
of involving every student during class is excellent. Assignments and projects should be given to minimize
the burden for finals. The behavioral feedback by previous teachers and seniors regarding the instructor
was quite horrible but I found him quite calm, cool and smiling person. The horrible impression vanished
now. On a lighter note.
