Über die Universität:
The study course, I've selected is The International Business Experiences as it is very exciting where I experienced the very great nature of being with multinational teams again. The programme consists of different courses in which most of them are very interactive. Professors push students to the limit by assigning various business tasks as solving a global case study of a company including its financial, marketing, sales and management problems.
Main contacts of the University for international students is the IFM (IFM-international(at)hr.nl).
Betreuung vor Ort:
Well just to be direct, people and locals are as great as the international students. Almost all of the Dutch people speak English and they are very helpful and chilled all the time.
Me as most of the international students had problems with housing at the beginning not due to university's lack of cooperation but the housing Organization which is called SSH. This organization had to move students to other locations because their buildings had fire safety problems. Finally they placed us on a hotel boat. I adapted to the situation, however, so many other complained various times.
I found my accommodation through the links and guides that DIT has sent to me. I really appreciate the DIT's effort assisting their students even when we are abroad.
Tipps:
Be there at least a week in advance, arrange your accommodation beforehand, don't trust unsure webpages and individuals when it comes to finding accommodation. I just mention it, because a friend of mine who I got to know in Rotterdam, got scammed by a person. After checking the bank account and other evidences it turned to be that they took her money to a suspicious banking information. The police could not help at any stage of this problem. So BE CAREFUL OF SCAMMING.
