Čím byla tvá univerzita výjimečná? Jak vypadaly prostory ve kterých jsi studoval(a) a univerzitní vybavení?
Diversity. At UB and also in Barcelona in general, I met students from everywhere in Europe, which is great for the acquisition of cultures. Also, the teachers and IO staff were super supportive
Co tě první napadne, když pomyslíš na svou "adoptivní" univerzitu. Čím byla výjimečná? Jak vypadaly prostory ve kterých jsi studoval(a) a univerzitní vybavení?
Teamwork was more heavily emphasized. We did a lot of projects, presentations, etc. both individually and in groups. There were two ways of study assessment: continuous assessment and final exam. With continuous assessment, students were assessed by participation, mid-term exams, a lot of homework and individual and group activities; there was no final exam in this case. Thus, their studies could finish earlier and students needed to work really hard and seriously to have good results. On the other hand, the 'final exam' option did not count any other activities, only the final result counted. I chose continuous assessment throughout my study stay, so I did not know how difficult the final exams were.
Jak vypadá studentský život na univerzitě?
ESNs at UB and in Barcelona/Spain were really dynamic. There were activities all the time, ranging from culture, trips to parties; and the participation rate was high.
Studoval(a) jsi v angličtině, nebo v jazyce hostitelské země? Jaké požadavky jsou v oblasti jazyka kladeny univerzitou?
I communicated in English, as all of my courses were taught in English
