Course recommendations

You can choose from many courses, but if you like to be really active you should choose seminars instead of lectures, but sometimes it is for the best to choose both so that you can practice the theory.

Course recommendations

E-Commerce and Retail marketing provides a very pragmatic and up-to-date insight into the issue. Organizational Behavior is a great multicultural experience, in terms of the materialsa and professors.

Generally I found the academic organization as fairly good. It would be great to have more exercises during courses. The crash course of German is an unforgetable experience, and big fun at the same time.

My German was ok when I got there but got better after 5 months. However, since I was a loy with exchange students, the language we spoke was English, so my German didn't get as good as it should have gotten.

Personal comments

Vienna as German-speaking city offers wide chances to practice your German but also English with the international students from almost every country in the world. However, this makes the speaking German rather hard since majority of the exchange students are not able to speak German. As a result, it depends on your own motivation to contact with locals to improve your German skills.

Personal comments

It was really great because I lived in a dorm where many exchange students were staying. If you had to study there was a seperate study room, if you wanted to have fun there was a bar downstairs, TV room etc. The dorm was situated near the railway station and also others traffic connections were really good.
