Overview

Because of the program, it's offering. Very few universities are offering this program, especially at affordable fees. I had been interested in data science and was looking for relevant programs. Then I checked the course structure of this program while searching for one. I liked it. Then I tried to find the requirements and it was too easy to apply. So I did.

Fees

There are scholarships offered by the university in most of the programs. That's, not the only scholarship. The Swedish government also offers an SI scholarship to the appropriate candidates. The type of scholarship offered by university differs. It varies from 25% to 75% scholarship. Though SI scholarship is 100%.

Overview

I applied for 3 University but in my view, link_ping is a very good studying system and especially for engineering students and I had a lot of senior people they studied in link_ping University they after complete they got a very good job right now they are in a very good position. I hope I will fulfill my dream.

Fees

Yes, SI scholarship available lots of international students got this offer but I didn't get I try also but my university they have different scholarship option. In the future, I have a plan to apply. University scholarship depends on semester results if you doing good results they will give a scholarship.

Overview

The degree was a unique mix of engineering + mba This is highly beneficial and almost a necessity in Sustainability these days. The research activities in Linköping around Bio energy and sustainability is extremely developed and internationally acclaimed.

Campus Life

Swedish culture is very introverted but due to the small university town culture Linköping had very high level of interactions between students since we stayed close by. University encourages such activities and we have on campus facilities.

Overview

Firstly, the world ranking mattered a lot. The weather, culture, study format were all a bit different and special. These were some of the factors that drove me to take up the offer.

Campus Life

10

Going abroad to study is a dream for many, likewise my dream came in to reality and I was amazed by the campus life and infrastructure- It was totally different from what I was used to seeing throughout my life. A huge campus (no skyscrapers as shown in the movies), very neatly organised, graffities here and there, state of the art international House and library, coffee shops, student pubs, and what not. Most of the weekends are spent in groups doing something or the other, most of which can be termed as extracurricular for many of us.

I have completed my masters in physics in 2017 and after that, I have some professional experiences. As per some of the agents, I am over-qualified for MS in Data Science. What should I do now?
