Housing
Type of housing: With a family
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why?
Though the experience of living with a family in a foreign country for the first year was more than positive, I always prefer to be close to the student area. It makes you feel more integrated with your condition as student. But , as I said, I would´nt mind go back to a family house

It was really helpfull at the begining if you consider moving to a country that you don´t know. It was very well organized, if any problem we always had a quickly and effective answer.

Personal comments
In Spain we give more importance to the lectures as a way to find the material for the course, in England is more and introduction to it. Maybe they should give more importance to the work in class, but again it was all new and interesting

At the very begining the diference in the prices where a constant suprise, living with a very small income was hard but the best tip it´s knowing your limitations and you would´n have any of those "surprises"

“BSc Honours information Managment”

United Kingdom, Graduate
Management Information Systems, 1997
Overall
Really enjoyed the course and its units, which gave a broad knowledge of information systems and techniques used by industry. Having built upon the knowledge gained and further progressed using SAP and various Project Management methodologies in my work experience. The I.T. teaching methods and packages taught gave a good grounding to further develop knowledge and techniques as you advance with technological progress.
