Student Reviews
Great program, but limited by restrictions
Anonymous rated 4 out of 5 stars
Overall, the professors and courses have been fine. Prior to Covid-19, there were many visits around the city that really benefitted the experiences and value of the degree. However, restrictions and online teaching have really detracted from the experience. I hope those, in the future, will have the opportunities afforded to them that makes an education abroad worthwhile.
