School

Our partner school has its premises in a spacious and elegant building which has been especially designed for studying. Its modern and functional architecture uses a lot of wood and glass, creating a warm atmosphere. There are 20 classrooms, a library, a reading room and a language lab. Internet access and a WiFi connection are free of charge. After classes and during breaks, you will be able to chat with your friends over a coffee on the school's beautiful terrace or in the student lounge. The university's botanic garden is right beside the school and you will be able to reach the historic centre of the city and the bustling student life within fifteen minutes on foot.
