It is about a 25 minute walk to the university from the apartments, so be sure to buy a bicycle.

Personal comments
Cross your fingers and hope the professor feels like teaching in English. If not, you might have to do like I did and learn a lot of the material from the books, even though the course was supposed to be taught in English.
