High Student Involvement in Program Decision
Maria-Lucia R
Belgium, Undergraduate
Sociology, 2021
Overall
The University, especially in the interdisciplinary program I am following, is more than willing to take into account the students' thoughts on courses, and adjust accordingly.

The program itself is carefully structured, and enables students to test their abilities, both in research and real-life competences e.g. teamwork and inter-cultural collaboration.
