Course recommendations
All the courses were interesting but I would advice students to be very careful in choosing the translation courses. These were a bit disappointing, depending on the professors.

The bar at the main student house of the University used to have a pretty wild hip hop night every Thursday. Apart from that, there were good parties at the end of each semester.

Housing
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why?
Because it's easier to meet other students and exchange ideas with them and hopefully also study together. Besides, there is all you need there: PC rooms, a library, a bar and a canteen.

Personal comments
Accomodation was fine, the student house was clean and quiet, although the standard is not the same for all the student houses of this University. I think that the accomodation, in general, is quite expensive.
