AAU is a truly unique university.I like how international it is and how it enables students to get to know other cultures more closely and learn to be more open and tolerant. This is the case especially with Central and East European Studies, a program which concentrates on the political, economic and socio-cultural role of Central and Eastern Europe. It allows students to learn how the peoples of the region have affected one another in the past, and also to learn more about that relationship in the present.” Ekaterina Chernysheva (Russia)
