Management Science, University Agreement
My academic experiences
Course recommendations:
English or Swedish its your choice. Only a limited number of courses available in English, get the list from the University web site (www.liu.se). If you want to study the whole time you can, if you want to party the whole time thats your choice too. I recommed to get to know as many people as you can, if that means drinking a large quantity of Åbro (beer) well who'd be complaining! Back regarding courses, you get to take your exams again if you fail the first time. Not the case at my Uni! (not that i've ever failed!)

Engineering, Mechanical, Erasmus
My academic experiences
Course recommendations:
Never hesitate to ask teachers, there will always be a helping hand. If you want to learn Swedish, take courses given in Swedish. Most of the courses contain laborations which give a deeper insight in the theoretical learnt, don't be afraid of these labs.
My opinion of the university assessment
Personal comments:
All in all it was good ... keep on going with the practical work in the labs, that ws really better than in Germany. A bit more and deeper insight in the theoretical background would have been sometimes desirable. Keep your flexibility! This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

Management Science, Erasmus
My academic experiences
Course recommendations:
The course-system is totally different from the system i know from Germany. The classes are not that big and the communication with the teacher is much better than in Germany. In Sweden, it seems that everything gets done with group-work, at least i made the experience. In conclusion, I can say that it is a very different way of studying compared with my home university. Nevertheless, I enjoyed this way more than the german way.

Course recommendations:
If you want to get to know swedes do not only go to the english tought classes, you will meet all the other exchange students there, but no swedes at all (or nearly none). And you will learn swedish mch faster

My academic experiences
Course recommendations:
make up your mind if you just want to study for some credits or the expewrience or if you really want to learn something... i got the feeling that some of the courses where more to "entertain" the exchange students... but if thats what you are looking for you will have a great time!

Course recommendations:
Lot of researches to make by ourselves, lots of books to read. But lots of group works which are very interesting.
My opinion of the university assessment

Difficult because mainly exchange students with different backgrounds. Maybe focus more instead of giving whole books to read... This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

My opinion of the university assessment
Personal comments:
The timetable is different every day... I think is better to do a static plan, and then you can organice yourself better. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

Course recommendations:
They are very good, but (for Computer Science) is quite difficult to get points compared with the other courses and careers. But, in the other hand, you'll learn a lot...

Course recommendations:
I wrote only a thesis here, but the general impression is that in Sweden no one fears to include the fun aspect in courses. As for theses, many interesting ones are on offer at both labs and companies.

Hardly. Academic life is both more fun and more professional than I am used to. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

Course recommendations:
I liked because the courses are very different from Spain, the teacher explained two hours and after the students gave their opinion; and you can have a good relationship with the teacher because the course was not full of people.
