I prefer that it's mostly project work
It's what you make out of it. It's mostly project work, not too much theory. The projects are free to choose in the beginning of the course (1 year) and later given by the university and mostly in colaboration with real partners. That makes it interesting on the one hand, on the other hand it also tends to be very comercial. For instance in 3 year of interior Design we barely ever covered how to design spaces for dwelling - but did a lot of shop concepts, exhibitions and so on. There are great possibilities for inter disciplinary exchange - especially in the timber and wood sector as the campus is one of the competence centers in that direction in Austria.
Lack of flexibility
It's a great city to live in, but the study program has several organisational issues and too much repetition in the course content. There's very little flexibility in choosing electives, which can be frustrating. On the plus side, many of the external lecturers are highly competent and bring valuable expertise to the classroom. However, the administrative staff don't communicate well in English, which can make paperwork and inquiries difficult.
Accessible Salzburg Study
The University of Salzburg is a relatively small university, so it may lack some resources, but the size of the faculties also makes it easier to communicate with the Professors. So far I've mostly had positive experiences studying there!
