How did you find academic study at Strathclyde compared to your home institution?
The course content is more or less the same, but here the assignments or continuous assessements take a total percentage of 40% towards the final result of the subject while it will take only 20% in NTU. Most of the lecturers don't give students detailed notes so we have to take our own notes in the lecture. Generally speaking, each subject has 1 hour less per week of class time compared to NTU.
Did your classes transfer back to your home institution as expected?
Yes

How much did you spend on food/general cost of living during your stay in Glasgow?

General Information
I will never forget the days I spent in Strathclyde. It was a great experience to stay in this university with homelike student flat, amazing night life, delicious food, comfortable library and very friendly university staff. Life in Glasgow is always intersting and exciting! I will come back again as one semester's time is really too short for me to have a good taste of Strathclyde and beautiful Scotland.
What advice would you give to potential Study Abroad students?
The second semester might be a better time for Scotland. Enjoy the food and amazing night life here! And do travel around!
