LU 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. The university has a functioning library. In addition to educational materials in various scientific areas, it contains a collection of classical and contemporary literature. LU accepts students for international exchange programs. This is a great opportunity to gain experience in intercultural communication for both international and local students.
Canada allows university graduates to stay in the country from 1 to 3 years. To do this, you need to apply for a graduate visa, which allows you to work even without a formal offer from an employer. You can find other options for immigration in our article.
