Biothecnology Engineering

The courses content was very extensive and you can learn from different biotechonlogy areas. Therefore, I liked it a lot because when I start university I wasnt sure about what to do or focus yet. However, I believe that in these fields the practice experience is completely necessary. Sadly, there were not too much research opportunities outside from plant biotechnology. That's why I didn't give it full score.

LL.B

I studied law and it was theoretical and practical. The lecturers were good and they tried to be hands-on with the students. The university always upgraded itself. It always looked for ways to be better for the students
