My little experience in CBS business school

I've had a good experience so far while I've been studying at CBS. However, the majority of students are of German nationality, while there are also students from other nations. If you're feeling under the weather or don't feel like going to school, they provide a blended learning option that allows you to stay at home and participate in the class simultaneously online. The campus in Cologne is not particularly cutting-edge, but I've heard that the campus in Mainz is more or less cutting-edge and attractive. The instructors and departmental officials are all cordial. The School encourages pupils to participate in a variety of sports because it values a healthy balance between work and recreation. As a result of CBS's partnerships with various significant businesses, the School is able to maintain its curricula current with the needs of the modern business world. Additionally, partnerships allow CBS to give its students greater options for internships and professional experience. By participating in business projects in collaboration with well-known companies, students can also gain important information and skills.

Second Chance

My experience at KLU has truly been life-changing. This university has given me a second chance and opened the door to a completely new life filled with opportunities. From the very beginning, it has felt like a second home. What makes KLU so special is the people. Every single person here is supportive and genuinely willing to help. The professors are not only highly qualified and professional, but also approachable and always ready to guide you in any academic or professional matter. I have never been in a place like this before. The strong connection with industry, the quality of events, and the incredible network of classmates and alumni create the perfect environment for both personal and professional growth. I will always be grateful to KLU for everything I have experienced here.

Flexible programm

I study architecture and this study is structured in a different way in most universities. What I like about the University of Stuttgart is that after obtaining the broad and diverse basics of the study in the first 2 years, you have the freedom to choose your own seminars and projects, concentrating on your point of interest. You can also distribute them as you wish. This is a huge adventure in a field where praxis in an office next to the studies is so important. An international semester is foreseen as well which helps you develop enormously in personal and cultural way.

Best Varsity

This was the best Varsity ever. The professionalism is on the high level. I have no dislikes and I highly recommend it to people who are struggling with focus. It's takes special students with disabilities.
