University of Borås is one of the better universities in Sweden. The teachers are very engaged and it's very clear in every course what the goals are and what the teachers expect us to have achieved in the end of every course. My overall study experience has been terrific.
very good but there were some financial challenges
I really enjoyed it but i would like more seminars so that you can exchange pass on ideas and knowledge. Since every student comes from different background the knowledge level varies. I have had an good study experience and i have learned a lot about the field of economics.
