“Individualised Studies”
Bich T
Germany,
Marketing and Sales Management, 2022
Overall
In the master studies of business administration you are totally free to choose your courses and specializations, so it can be individualised very strongly. Campus life is fun, nice campus with regular events. Professors are always happy to help via e-mail, phone or in person.

I wired my money to Volksbank, which went very smoothly. You can get transport around the city for a semester for about 60EUR when getting the uni id card. If you plan to use train a lot, get a Bahncard 50. remember to say you're a student when you buy this card. use budget airlines too :)

Personal spending habits
Because the nightlife in Spain is more expensive. And in Spain I don´t usually travel. And in the host country I had to buy a movil telephone, so I spent more money than in Spain, where I had no movil telephone.
