"The Ruhruniversität in Bochum is a very pleasant university to be enrolled in. It may not be aesthetically pleasing, but the staff and students working there are quite willing to open up and socialise. The academic athmosphere is represented very well. All in all I felt perfectly at home there for the time I was able to stay there" - experience from a former exchange student
