My name is Mihailo Laković, and I am a fourth-year student of the Business Informatics study program.
I carry very nice memories from my student exchange at Thomas More University of Applied Sciences in Geel, Belgium. I will remember that semester forever :D
I was very impressed by the organization of classes and the study system. In every course, the focus was on practical work and team projects, where we learned how to apply our knowledge through real-life tasks. I especially liked that the courses were organized in a way that required students to continuously work on assignments and submit their tasks. In some courses the final grade was based entirely on activity and work during the semester, without a final exam.
I liked Belgium because it is a highly organized and developed country, with many beautiful places and large cities to visit. The Erasmus program provides a good scholarship, which makes it possible to visit wonderful places without spending a lot of money. This part of Europe is very well connected by buses and trains, so organizing trips is extremely simple. I was also lucky to meet a great group of friends, and we spent our free time enjoying parties and traveling together.
