At UBC teaching is of a high standard. The teachers are very well prepared and are generally good pedagogues. The classrooms are very well equipped and have the shape of a classic North American university classroom in the shape of an amphitheater. The energy that the students have makes the academic experience quite pleasant as well, everyone is always eager to learn and change the world. Learning in another language helped me a lot to improve my spoken and written English. The academic load of 4 courses is the perfect amount to perform well and enjoy the exchange.
The experience was very enriching in the educational and experiential aspect. Experiencing what it is like to study at one of the best universities in the world and being able to learn about other perspectives and ways of approaching Economics was quite positive. Likewise, the experience of living with roommates from other parts of the world and on a campus with an unimaginable amount of activities to do was very exciting. On the other hand, Vancouver being a very diverse city and UBC in particular being one of the universities with the greatest diversity of students in the world, being able to learn much more about other cultures and ways of living gave great added value to the experience.
