You can't take 3000 and 4000 level couress with 1000 and 2000 levels. In addition they only offer one section of each course a semester and so many courses timetable out other courses.

Continuos assessment is a good thing, but don't expect it at U of A.

If you do Computing Science, don't miss out Distributed Information Systems and Artificial Intelligence. I also took a great Communications Engineering course in the Engineering department.
The quality of these courses are the best of the best!!

I think academic life in Aberdeen is pretty good. You also have plenty of clubs to join.(e.g. I joined the wine and whisky tasting society, and really learned a lot about drinking )

Very different working system than in Belgium : much more all-year participative.
Watch out for availability of courses (some are only given 1 year out of 2), but the timetable compatibility is usually very good.

I would have appreciated a wider choice of courses, but the Erasmus Program is quite flexible about equivalencies

I started the Bsc Health and Nutrition course, which is still undercontruction and poorly taught ( I felt)
Most classes are held in william guild lecture hall, expect to have as many as 500 people in classes and about 40 for tutorials.

There was no continuous assessment on my course, just a final exam at the end of the year. You have to study independently, if you want to keep learning.

I found most of the lecturers were insular and xenophobic bigots.Who still held a " early 20th century mentality" on the intellectual abilities of black/african students, Fellow students seemed to take cue from their lecturers.Overseas students only 2 words come to mind, STAY AWAY.
