Lots of memorizing, less thinking

At this university, you need to memorize tons of information - most of it you will never ever use + you will forget it right after the exam. Students are not encouraged to use their brains and to come up with their own solutions, but to just absorb the information the teacher gives them. I got As and Bs but haven't learn almost anything.

Quality of CVUT

Firstly, I would like to mention that CVUT is one of the best unis in Czech Republic. After graduating it gives a plenty of opportunities to work since its certificate is recognised around the world in huge companies. It’s not a secret that not all of the students can work while studying, it’s quite difficult to study there but it worth it. Inside, every faculty’s building is modern. Especially FIT, where I am studying now looks great. Professors and tutors create opportunity to study, they can answer to all your questions if there are. Secondly, getting to the uni is not that difficult even if you live far from it. Transportation in public is so developed and trams can get you anywhere quickly. For instance, I am living in Prague 3 and uni is located in Prague 6, even though in map it the distance could be seen so far, by using tram I get to the uni in 20-30 minutes. To sum up, it can be difficult to study there and subject can be hard too but it worth it since after it creates you a huge opportunity to work in successful companies without any doubt.

Quality and experience!

I can say I am completely different from before and after AAU. At some point I wondered but now without even noticing I can see my knowledge has improved a lot. I say seamless because it is not the traditional type of learning, you learn through hands on projects, in class discussions, real world scenarios, interactive sessions and becomes part of your day to day life and interests. I 100% Recommend AAU to anyone who wants to experience a life-long a real international community and learn in the process while having the time of your life in Europe!
