Simply sensational
February 09, 2020by: Boris COLUSSI-CORTE - FranceProgram: Study Abroad in Kuala Lumpur - Universiti Putra MalaysiaI studied at the Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM) which is the first-ranked university in Malaysia. Although it is specialized in agronomy and agriculture, this vast university is composed of multiple faculties, each specialized in a specific topic (environment, biotech, engineering, language, economics, etc.). I loved how Malaysia shows different cultural aspects, from Indian’s culture to Malay’s or Chinese’s. I lived an incredible semester in Malaysia which allowed me to discover new cultures; the food, the peoples, the temples… everything is astonishing in Kuala Lumpur! Moreover, by studying there, I was able to travel to most of the countries in South East Asia -Thailand and Indonesia were my favorites- with a low budget. Asia exchange was of great help during the whole semester. From facilitating communication between us -the students- and the UPM international office, to giving us advice for travels and visa applications, with very quick answers!
A once in a lifetime experience for me
January 23, 2020by: Nadia Bennoui - FranceProgram: Study Abroad in Kuala Lumpur - Universiti Putra MalaysiaI studied at Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM) near Kuala Lumpur for one semester (from September 2019 to January 2020) as it was mandatory in my home university. As I did not get much help from my home university, I was glad to be guided by Asia Exchange from the very beginning to the end. I studied at the faculty of Biotechnology and Biomolecular Sciences as it was perfectly suited for me and my previous studies. The lecture content was excellent. Obviously, studying was not the only activity of my semester. Having the opportunity to study in Malaysia involves discovering new cultures and habits from the country and other Southeast Asian countries such as Thailand, Indonesia and many more, without spending a lot of money. I had the privilege to see so many different landscapes, to try plenty of local dishes, and to make friends and memories that I will cherish for the rest of my life. I really recommend you to study in Asia wherever you go, as long as you choose Asia Exchange as your travel organism. They will answer all your questions in a short time and will provide you great help before and during your entire semester. I will never forget this amazing adventure in Malaysia.
