The teachers are very good, most of them they very good professionals. The library was huge and full of books,(if i compare with the library of my university in Spain). The seminars, plenty of time to study, few hour-classes, the assigments.

In Luton there is an airport, 15 min. far from town. Easy jet offer cheap tickets from Bcn to Luton so it was not a big problem. Luton is well comunicated to London(45 min, far). Also there is a bus service that takes you to Cambridge and Oxford. The weather is horrible, I have missed a little the sunny Spain. I have met lots of people with some i am still in contact. After this experience i became more open-minded and more self-confidence. I leanrt how survive in another country with a difference language, different culture and it was so good. I also learnt other subjects of my carrer that are different in my university.I recommend to study abroad!! I am sure everybody will enjoy it

I wish I had known that I could only have one carry-on luggage in the EU. I wish I had brought bigger luggage.

I met some of the coolest people ever on this trip; definitely socialize! While I spent the trip mostly around international students; others had fun with locals as well.

Turn in your assignments on time; you'll be guaranteed a decent grade. The city of Luton sucks...however, you're only a 30 minute train ride to London! Don't walk home alone. Watch your belongings...there are many thieves; 8 of my friends have been robbed at one point or another in Luton! Don't take a "romantic" interest too seriously, there is too little time to get preoccupied! Party as much as you can, just turn in your assignments on time! For people used to 24-hour conveniences, this is NOT the place! Everything closes at 5; do your errands early! If you decide to live in Bute Court, good luck trying to get some sleep! Also check out the Chinese restaurant Sun Do nearby!

Careers
I did not interact with any type of internship during the 3 year courses.

Pros
The most special thing would be the instructors and the access to pc equipment containing up to date hardware and techniques
Cons
They can improve in advanced topics for each domain that they are advertising

Too bad sometimes it's such a scary palce (at night in partricular). Quite a small city with not so much to do but quite full of students. Quite a good University.Probably the cheapest in England.

I wish I had known...
that Luton is a very multicultural town and I could not practically find any native english speaker to practice my my english accent. Oher people spoke their dialects of english which was quite different from what I expected. So,I ended up practising my american accent with my american exchange friends.

ok, the University is not famous for its rank, I think it comes somewhere at the end of the list. Nevetheless a good job is done there. Teachers are really accesible and helpful and the envirnoment pleasant.

London was what I opted for, but there wasn't a university available for erasmus students. So Luton was my next choice as it was the closest to London. One of the best points was the Luton airport. We literally had the whole Euurope at our feet with really cheap fares. The nightlife is crazy as Luton is full of students. It's not for a long time though. I think 1 year to stay is enough-after that it becomes dull. If you 're looking for a beautiful city to stay then don't go to Luton-I would characterise it as rather ugly.
