Course recommendations
As a CEMS student, there really weren't too many courses to chose among. My recommendation would be to attend the courses having an international aspect, because they were among the best at this university.

Personal comments
The one big problem in Cologne, was that I had to search for all the literature myself. And the library was really large for someone coming from Norway. This took quite a long time in the beginning, but I eventually managed to find what was needed for the different courses. A major improvement would include more specified literature lists.

Course recommendations
To be honest I rarely went to class. If you want to practice your German I recommend doing a seminar in German for German students. It's a great way to experience their learning environment and meet other German students. If you're doing German literature do a subject taught by Ingo Breuer, he's great!

It was kind of painful doing subjects where your entire grade is based on the final exam because I just never ever showed up to class and had to majorly cram/panic during finals. THANK GOD for retakes ;)

Course recommendations
The strategic courses I followed where really great. Also the course on Fast Moving Consumer Goods, which was facilitated by Henkel, was interesting. Further there was a german course on e-commerce which was really good.

Choice of courses very limited in my exchange program (CEMS). Courses taught in English as well as German (you have to know both languages to succeed!)

If the UoC wants to become more international, it should offer more courses taught in English... Having to choose at least 1 or 2 courses in German scares the people off.

Course recommendations
Try to get to Cologne a few weeks before the start of classes, as organising your courses is a little complicated at a university with 65,000 students.

I was used to more interaction between students and teachers from the Stockholm School of Economics, but my overall impression from the university of Cologne was OK.
