Student review [#10725] for International Business
at University of Southern Denmark - SDU

I’m a bachelor student in Economics and Business Administration in my 6th semester at SDU (University of Southern Denmark) in Kolding. Generally, what I’ve experienced from the university is the following: 1. The schools management is out of touch with its students. They absolutely love Multiple Choice exams throughout semesters in several courses, and a few courses have quite untraditional forms of exams and lots of peer feedback – one final course exam I had almost entirely relied on peer feedback. From my experience, none of the following is what any of the students attending SDU, that I’ve spoken to, want. 2. The level of education at lectures is extremely poor. I’ve completely stopped going to lectures to study all courses throughout my semesters on my own. To highlight a few cases: Once a professor spent half a lecture talking about his private life. Another time another professor spent 2.5 hours going through 3 pages of the course curriculum. Others just mock the students openly. I’ve found about 80-90% of lectures a waste of time. 3. I’ve experienced several internally made final assignments containing numerous typos and errors. For example numbers denominated in the wrong currency, their beloved multiple choices containing multiple of the same possible answers (and even missing out the correct answers). 4. This school loves, like literally loves, marketing. (Almost) everything is marketing-oriented. I literally went on exchange in my 5th semester just to have the opportunity to follow courses that weren’t marketing oriented and with proper lectures. To sum up, my time at SDU has been far from great. I’ve encountered two or three professors, that I’d say were good. If a friend of mine asked me if he/she should attend SDU, I would absolutely recommend them to look at other universities. If I hadn’t come this far in my bachelors degree, I’d probably have switched to another university.
