BUT is an amazing place to be a part of. Especially as foreign student, it can be tough to come to a country where you don't know the language but everyone at the institute makes you feel so welcomed and as a part of the team. It is an institute full of brilliant and very helpful teachers and students doing cutting edge work. I never felt less than as everyone is treated the same. The best thing about BUT is that it's not all about the work but so much more. Every wednesday, they organise playing volleyball together and even after clocking in the hours, on fridays or thursdays, they all get a bite to eat or hang out together.
