Aalborg Universitet (AUC)

Aalborg University, specifically Aalborg Business School, follows the Problem Based Learning model. PBL restructures the workload of university learning onto the shoulders of the student. In other words, after the 2 hour lecture 4-5 days a week the knowledge discussed by the professor is open to interpretation by the student. The student needs to be able to structure, organize, and understand that knowledge in a way that best suits them.

Therefore, the PBL model gives you the opportunity to better understand yourself and how you work. From my experience, besides given the articles that can assist in the problem at hand, the experience at AAU is very close to the experience at a future employer, ie. given a problem, find assisting resources, and develop solutions.

The gap between university graduate and employee of a firm is shortened by the PBL model at Aalborg University, and for that I am very grateful.
