BSU campus
The rural campus of BSU is a great opportunity to get an education in the fresh air. Thanks to this location type, students collaborate more closely with each other during their studies and outside of academic activities, creating a close-knit student community. Other advantages of the rural campus include access to various types of outdoor recreation and fewer distractions from study. There is a library on the grounds of the university. There are collected scientific works of graduates and teachers of the university, as well as fiction. Foreigners who come to BSU through exchange programs study and live with local students.
