Umeå Universitet (UMU)

I FEEL THAT AS AN INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY THEY SHOULD IMPLEMENT CERTAIN STRATEGIES TO MAKE THE LOCAL AND INTERNATIONAL STUDENT WORK WITH EACH OTHER,LEARN FROM EACH OTHER.FOREXAMPLE THE WAY GROUP WORKS ARE ORGANISED IS DISAPPOINTING FOR AN INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY.I FEEL THAT INTERNATIONAL STUDENT LEAVE THEIR HOME COUNTRY TO LEARN ABOUT WAYS AND REASONING OF STUDENTS ABROAD NOT TO COME AND STILL FIND THEMSELVES WORKING TOGETHER IN THE SAME GROUP DUE TO REGULATION/LAW ABOUT STUDENTS DECIDING WHO TO WORK WITH.OBVIOUSLY WHEN STUDENTS ARE ALLOW TO DECIDE WHO TO WORK WITH THE LOCAL STUDENTS WILL PREFER WORKING WITH THEIR FRIENDS,AND THE INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS WILL BE FORCED TO WORK AMONGST THEMSELVES THUS STILL CARRYING ON THE SAME SYSTEM OF REASONING AND APPROACH TO STUDIES.I FEEL THAT IS NOT GOOD AND I SUGGEST A CHANGE.

I would like to live on campus because it will be relatively more convinient since i wouldn't have to walk much before getting to lectures. Also i will not incurr any transportation costs in doing so.

That I was gonna enjoy so much that I would have arranged everything to stay longer!

I liked the subjects, the teachers, the installations, I think it is a good University.

Telephone systems and technology in general are not quite deeloped at home and the very few companies that offer telephone services take advantage to charge high prices. In Sweden, it seems telecommunications technologies are very advanced and this may have resulted in efficient means of providing this service. This may have been translated into lower cost of production which is eventually reflected in the prices. I think the other expenses cost more because the general cost of living in Sweden is higher than Ghana's. I believe this situation is a reflection of the economic prosperity of both countries.
