Exchange semester at Linnaeus University was a valuable and inspiring experience for me. Studying in Sweden gave me the opportunity to get closely acquainted with a different academic and cultural environment, which had a significant impact on both my personal and professional development.

This semester was more than just a period of studying — it created a space for discovering new perspectives, interests, and skills. Through the exchange program, I was able to achieve my academic goals while also gaining unique experience in living and studying in an international setting and getting to know different cultures.

Semester at Linnaeus university was undoubtedly one of the most creative and motivating periods in my university life.

My name is Luka Kakhetelidze and I study at the University of Georgia. I spent the Spring semester in Bulgaria as part of an exchange program, and it was a truly enriching experience both academically and personally.

I received a high-quality education, attended engaging lectures with a strong practical focus, and had the chance to actively participate in class discussions. Beyond academics, I immersed myself in Bulgarian culture, made many international friends, and significantly improved my English skills.

Participating in the exchange program was an invaluable experience, and I would definitely recommend it to other students.

Spending one semester at IPBeja University in Portugal through the Erasmus+ program was the most unforgettable and inspiring experience for me.

During this semester, I experienced european teaching standards. We had very diverse, engaging, and interactive lectures, filled with practical assignments and field activities.

Meeting students from different countries, learning about their cultures, and sharing information about Georgia was, in my opinion, the most important part of this project. It also gave me the opportunity to travel around Portugal and get to know the local traditions. Living independently completely changed my lifestyle and perspectives.

I would like to express my deepest gratitude to the University of Georgia , their dedicated team, and the European Union for making the Erasmus+ program possible.

The exchange semester at Linnaeus University in Sweden was a valuable academic and cultural experience. Studying in a foreign environment gave me the opportunity to explore subjects from different perspectives and compare educational systems. The teaching methods at Linnaeus University, based on a practical and student-centered approach, were especially inspiring. The knowledge and skills I gained not only deepened my academic understanding but also became an important part of my international experience and significantly contributed to my professional development.

This experience is not just shaping my dissertation; it’s transforming the way I approach complex topics with a global perspective. Engaging in an international academic environment challenges me to think critically, solve problems creatively, and navigate diverse viewpoints. The skills I’m developing—whether in research, cross-cultural communication, or adaptability—are invaluable, not only for my academic journey but also for my future career.

Studying at Sapienza has been a transformative experience. Engaging with a new academic culture, learning from esteemed professors, and collaborating with international peers has broadened my perspective in ways I never imagined. The exchange has given me the confidence to apply fresh insights to my work. It’s an experience that goes beyond academics - it’s about growth, adaptability, and seeing the world through a different lens.

My exchange semester at Tomas Bata University was an invaluable opportunity—one made possible by the University of Georgia, for which I am deeply grateful. This experience provided me with high-quality education in an international setting, enhancing both my academic and cultural perspectives.

Beyond the classroom, I built lifelong friendships that became a second family, highlighting the importance of global connections. It was also a platform to share my country with others. Many of my peers had limited knowledge of Georgia, and I found great fulfillment in introducing them to its rich history and socio-economic challenges, fostering deeper understanding and awareness.

This exchange was not only an academic pursuit but also a transformative journey of personal and intellectual growth—one that will leave a lasting impact on me.
