I have got a relative who recently graduated from SAU. Here is what he had to say about the institute.

• Course structure- SAU has a good curriculum for a master's program. SAU offers an extra 6 months project under the guidance of one faculty member that helps you learn the basics of research and especially software like Matlab and Latex.
• Faculties- All the lecturers are well-qualified and more inclined towards research work.
• Academic environment- SAU gives you all possible facilities such as one-to-one interaction with faculties, study rooms, library, and good peer interaction.
• Brand value- SAU is a new university and growing at a slow pace with a few courses available.
• Culture- SAU celebrates a multi-culture environment as students of SAARC countries study and live together.
• Placements- SAU doesn't provide professional courses and does not have a placement cell. However, it provides a strong background to those interested in academics and research.

Hope this answers your question.
