Studying business from the perspective of a different culture as well as learning more about that culture and its history was very interesting. English not being the native language was not a problem due to how all the teachers and exchange staff spoke English. Although sometimes some of the teachers had trouble understanding and answering questions.<\/p>\n<p>I think the academic intensity was higher due to more classes, but the actual assessment was a bit easier. Unlike QUT, lectures were more common, with less classroom work and interaction except for in culture class and innovation management. Presentations were used as assessment in every class, and were generally 20-30min or full period presentations long. This was a great opportunity to work with other students. Every class has a final exam, unlike QUT, this was a bit more stressful as exam period was over 5 days and you had to do around 7-10 exams, sometimes 3-4 per day depending on your courses.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2798\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2798\" style=\"width: 529px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.qut.edu.au\/qut-exchange-students\/files\/2016\/02\/Picture6.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2798\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2798\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.qut.edu.au\/qut-exchange-students\/files\/2016\/02\/Picture6.jpg\" alt=\"Accommodation at NUCB\" width=\"529\" height=\"281\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.qut.edu.au\/gone-global\/files\/2016\/02\/Picture6.jpg 529w, https:\/\/blogs.qut.edu.au\/gone-global\/files\/2016\/02\/Picture6-300x159.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.qut.edu.au\/gone-global\/files\/2016\/02\/Picture6-500x266.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 529px) 100vw, 529px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2798\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Accommodation at NUCB<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>My accommodation was a private dorm room. It came with furniture, bedding, a pan, dishes and cutlery and also had air-conditioning, a washing machine and a private bathroom. However the kitchen was rather small and only had one burner which made cooking somewhat difficult. But the large range of relatively cheap food available nearby meant I didn\u2019t have to cook every night. It was located close to transport and NUCB while being walking distance vicinity of downtown Nagoya which was great. NUCB also had a share house and another dorm building in different areas; and are currently building a new dorm near Sakae.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I studied only business and culture courses while at NUCB.
