ACADEMIC    
by Youri, Université Louis Pasteur Strasbourg, Strasbourg, France
Economics, Erasmus
My academic experiences
Quality of courses
KEY:
Fantastic.
Pretty good.
Could've been a bit better.
Disappointing.
Variety of courses
Availability/access to resources
Interaction with teachers
Interaction with other international students
Interaction with local students
Course recommendations:
There is a system of "BLock" which consists in very long days during one week and then an exam at the end. It could be interesting for the people who want to do all very quickly and who support intensive program !



My opinion of the university assessment
Exams at end of course

Liked it.
It was alright.

Didn't like it.
Exams throughout the course

Business Studies, Erasmus
Language difficulties
Social
KEY:
No problems.
I coped pretty well.
Sometimes it was difficult.
It was a constant struggle.
Educational
Administrative / Institutional
Overall
Language of instruction: German
Was learning German a key decision factor?
No, it wasn't.
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.
