Try to make the matriculation process to courses easier. Studients have to spend a considerable amount of time trying to find the adecuate courses and the course requirements on their own and talking to teachers who do not know what these are.

Course recommendations
The course is good but many things to learn in such a short time. It should be extended some months.

The exams shoudn't be only on a couple of weeks. We dont have enough time to breath from one to other, even some of them are in the same day.

Personal spending habits
The rent for student accomodation was was the double than in Finland. The food at the University was also more expensive( and worse) so I cooked a lot at home.Nightlife was definitely cheaper than Finland, for example cinemas and pubs.

Course recommendations
Depending on your preference, Honours-level courses are recommended in that they offer more flexibility. Standard courses can be quite structured in terms of assessment requirements, ie have to write essays on an allocated topic etc.

“Friendly, dynamic and challenging university”

Business Studies, 2016
Overall
After completing the Business Economics Undergraduate course I found it to be a very good foundation not only for the technical aspects of the business world but also for networking and communicating across cultures from around the world. The teachers are no doubt some of the best in the world and the university is very well established and organized. I couldn't have asked for a better study experience.
