👉Read the new Blog written by Nick, EDS student ‼️From the U.S. to Czechia: A Student’s Perspective on Life Abroad‼️ 🖊The Czech Republic is an incredible country, a sentiment shared not only by me but by many other internationals I’ve met. Prague, in particular, stands out with its vibrant architecture, walkable streets, lush parks, and breathtaking views—locals take immense pride in their city. However, for Americans like myself and other Westerners, living here comes with eye-opening cultural differences worth exploring. 🔸University Life: Generalization vs Specialization In the US, our bachelor’s degree typically lasts four years as a full time student, but many people extend it out to five or six years even. This is unlike the Czech Republic where this degree only takes three years to complete. Why this difference? Simply, in the United States, our first two years of education are focused on getting a general education, where you learn math, English, science, history, philosophy, etc. We do this because we Americans emphasize having well-rounded knowledge. Czechia however gets right to specializing in your degree field. As an Economic Data Science (EDS) student, my first semester went right into Microeconomics, Math for Economists, Programming, Statistics, and Data Analysis. 🔸Cost of Living: An Affordable Country Before my studies, I had applied to numerous schools throughout both America and Europe. In every case, the Czech Republic won in terms of affordability. This is especially true when coming from the US – a country notorious for absurdly high tuition fees. The cheapest schools in the US were at least twice the tuition as here, many four-five times, some over ten times as much. Dormitory costs are also the same, with US dorms being two-four times more expensive. 👉Read the whole blog at our webpage, more information in bio. #studentsblog #askstudents #fisbachelor #fismasters #studyinczechrepublic #newtoczechia #whattoknow @studyinprague @vseinternationalstudents @fis_vse
