Personal comments
In Innbruck there is a dialect spoken which is hard to understand even for Germans. When people where talking dialekt, at least at the beginning, it was a nightmare. Only at the end of the semester could I understand and only if somebody was talking to me. When to locals were talking to eachother like always, it could have been Chinese!!!

Course recommendations
At the time I was there the University was restructuring the cources, making it possible to choose in advance. The International Organizations cource was a pilot project back then, but was actually quite good. The Professor of the International Management cource was a sleeping pill.
