The faculty for Engineering department is very efficient, responds quickly on any course related details, clarify all the doubts regrading units, assessments, deadline, student portal issues, gives career plan for all the students, tutoring classes for students who are in need but the faculty for student central is a bit complicated with handling international students and my overall experience with the Deakin faculty is good
