Linköpings Universitet (LIU) reviews

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!)

No.

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.

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!

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.

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

You came here to study faster than at home? So why did you come here at all. Enjoy...don't take to many

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!

Lot of researches to make by ourselves, lots of books to read. But lots of group works which are very interesting.

Difficult because mainly exchange students with different backgrounds. Maybe focus more instead of giving whole books to read...
