AAU campus
The campus of the educational institution is suburban. It combines the features of a rural and urban campus. Students live separately from the city and create a close-knit community. At the same time, they are not very far from the city and have access not only to urban entertainment, such as cinemas and restaurants, but also to outdoor activities. Students have access to the extensive scientific library of the university. The collection of scientific papers helps them in conducting research. The exchange of intercultural experience occupies a special place in training at AAU. The educational institution regularly invites foreign students to participate in exchange programs and organizes various joint events.
There are many options to stay in the country after completing your studies at the university. One of them is to get an offer from an employer and apply for a work visa. Detailed information can be found on the embassy website. We talk about other options for immigration in our article.
