  • Moving to Prague at 18 was the best decision I ever made. Even though Prague started as an overwhelming city with a new language and culture, it quickly became a place I call home. The welcoming professors, international community, and experiences both inside and outside the classroom helped me feel at home while preparing me for my master's degree in Berlin.

  • The people, as well as the variety and complementarity of the courses, were what I enjoyed most about my time at AAU. I met inspiring and genuinely interesting students and professors in the close-knit environment of our campus. Looking back, I realize how valuable it was to study in small class groups and have direct access to professors and their mentorship.
