A virtual version of the campus with several campus buildings, sports facilities, canteens and cafes allows you to take a virtual walk around the campus. The distance education staff decided to conduct tours of the campus for those who cannot come on regular real-world excursions, for more visit https://www.mindk.com/industries/elearning/. Thus, potential applicants from rural areas and remote areas of the Midwest can familiarize themselves with the university and understand how attractive and realistic this university can be for them to enter and live.
