Üniversite olarak çok iyidi ancak bölümümüzün konum pek uygun olmadığı için beklediğim kadar sosyal bir aktivitem olmadı ancak çok şey öğrendim insan davranışları hakkında, pazarlama ve tanıtım hakkında.
My time at the university was both challenging and rewarding. I really appreciated the supportive professors and the variety of courses available, which allowed me to explore my interests. The campus community was welcoming, and there were plenty of opportunities to join clubs and events. One area that could be improved is the availability of more quiet study spaces, especially during exam periods. Overall, my experience was very positive, and I feel it prepared me well for future opportunities
- It is not a good choice if you do not like your area, no social life.
