My name is Artem Burmich, I am a student of the Ural Federal University. In the fall semester of 2021/2022, I went to study for an exchange in Heilbronn, Germany. The International Affairs Office for GSEM students offered various options, but in the end, I settled on Heilbronn University of Applied Sciences. This wonderful university is located in the south of Germany on the land of Baden-Württemberg in Heilbronn. Since I studied at the International Business program, my courses were held at the new campus, which is called Bildungscampus.
At the beginning of the semester, you are given the opportunity to choose not only the courses you want to study, but also the professors. Despite the fact that the training took place in Germany, all the professors and students of the university, speak excellent English, so there were no problems. The peculiarity of the training was the original approach. In some courses, famous experts were invited, who revealed subtle nuances. In some courses, professors worked closely with the audience to find out the true opinion. But the most important thing was the joint group work on each course. I can say with confidence that the professors at the Faculty of International Business provide modern and accessible not only theoretical, but also practical knowledge.
An exchange trip doesn't end with just studying! You are given the opportunity to live in a dormitory with students from all over the world. Personally, I met and got close to guys from Italy, Brazil, Portugal, England, Germany, Moldova, Georgia, Finland. This is an unforgettable cross-cultural experience, which I miss so much now at home, in Ekaterinburg. In the dormitory, my roommate was a guy from India, so I had a rich international life!
A very important point is that since you make your own schedule, you can plan your pastime in advance. That's why I traveled! I have visited many beautiful places, for example, Portugal, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Sweden and Croatia, visited such German cities as Stuttgart, Berlin, Munich, Heidelberg, Köln, and climbed the Säuling Mountain in the Alps!
I strongly recommend you to go abroad to study for an exchange and highly recommend Heilbronn University of Applied Sciences because of the highly qualified professors, modern educational campus, as well as excellent location in the center of Europe!
