🎓Hit the books! How do you rate the university experience?

Can you enroll in a course where you can learn the local language?yes

Does the university offer enough courses in English?it's alright

Was there anything in the teaching methods that surprised you?Much more than at MU, teaching was focused on classroom discussions. A lot of emphasis was placed on students being active in class, but the teachers always managed to create a comfortable atmosphere where students were not afraid of saying something wrong.

Does the university offer international students' programs and activities outside of lectures and seminars to help them integrate more quickly?Yes, all of the above. I attended orientation week, which helped me with registration and course selection, and I've been to about 2 or 3 events organized by ISN during the semester :)

Other

Special needs - Other:It is possible that unoverzita offers other support, I just don't know about it.
