Why did you go to PUA for student exchange?

The chance to visit Africa, and more specific an Arab country with so much history as Egypt has, made the decision very easy. PUA offered the necessities and quality needed for my bachelor thesis to be conducted.

How long was the exchange period?

The exchange lasted 8 weeks in total.

How have you been chosen for the exchange?

Prof. Andrew Martin from KTH scouted for students to participate in a collaboration with PUA and KTH, me and my colleagues applied and were accepted.

What do you think are the differences between studying at PUA and KTH?

The difference is a more direct contact or line of communication in PUA compared to KTH. The relationships between pupils and professors are more personal than in KTH. Moreover, the learning is more of a practical character in PUA than in KTH, where the approach is often more theoretical and is conducted to bring discussion.

Did PUA staff, professors, researcher and others that you met been helpful and easy to communicate, discuss and cooperate

They have been excellent in supporting all causes, the communication line is very clear and everyone, including students, are very generous and show great hospitality. Our Egyptian colleagues, whom we collaborate with, have excellent knowledge in their field and are easy to discuss with.

Could you describe a regular day as a student at PUA?

Since we have a specific collaboration, our working day consists mainly of own work on the project with some discussions in between with our Egyptian colleagues.

What was the best part of your experience at PUA?

Meeting all the different people, from the Dean of Engineering, to our lovely supervisor Dr. Norhan and all the students willing to greet us and make us feel welcome!

What was the biggest challenge for you during your trip?

Adapting to the difference between Swedish and Arabic culture, but it has been very fun to observe and learn the language, food culture and so on!

What are your impressions of Alexandria and Egypt?

Alexandria has been wonderful, it is truly a city with lots of history and a beautiful shoreline to the Mediterranean Sea. Egypt biggest asset is its people, the hospitality and generosity are always above and beyond.

Is there something about life in Alexandria and Egypt that has surprised, impressed you?

The different mix of cultures combined from the different eras in Alexandria, the Greek, roman, and so on all mixed together makes the city a beautiful historical place.

Do you have any advice for colleagues at KTH that, in the future, will do student exchange at PUA?

Feel free to talk to people, they will most surely help you or make your life easier in some way. Also, the seafood here is amazing, you have to try the crab soup at the fish market!

What have you taken with you from this experience on a personal level?

I have met amazing people whom I will remember, the new culture has been really fun to observe and live with and has opened up the interest to explore Egypt more in the future. I have also gained a more practical understanding in my field of engineering, something that I greatly appreciate.

How do studies and researches at (KTH Royal Institute of Technology) differ in comparison to your previous experience?

There are so many differences:

• Labs and lectures are highly informative and direct the students to a huge amount of data and information.
• The estimated learning hours of each course are longer, which means the students can learn the courses deeper. Also, the theory learning is always followed with the practical work, such as labs and project work.
• The organization of the academic year in four periods, each one with two courses to attempt, makes easier the planning of studying as well as the preparation of examination.
• The students are ambitious not only to get a good mark but also to really understand the subjects and above all, getting practical experience.
• Here students, researchers and teachers seem to be at same level with the same importance even if covering different roles. Furthermore, transparency and meritocracy are conditions without which KTH could not exist. All the people from students to professors form a great academic group providing a motivating study and research environment.
• KTH is the best place for an engineer with education and career ambitions.

How do studies and researches at (Royal Institute of Technology KTH) differ in comparison to your previous experience?

I have attended lectures, practical tutorials and seminars during my short visit. There are several differences, some of them are minor but others are major differences. Starting with the minor differences: The lecturer is on time sharp in the classroom but starts the lecture after 15 minutes. Students are allowed to enter/leave the classroom upon their wish. Many students do not follow the instructor, instead they work on their laptops or mobile phones, but they do not interrupt the lesson in any way. If from noon till 1:00 pm there is a lecture, students are allowed to eat their lunch. As for the major differences: The time management differs from an instructor to another. For example, some instructors divide the lecture to 4 parts: 30 minutes’ lecture followed by a 15 minutes task, in which students work in groups. The instructor then discusses briefly the outcomes of the group task. After the discussion a 15 minutes break is given. After the break the lecture is continued for 30 minutes followed by a group task for another 15 minutes. Other instructors divide the lectures just in two parts: 45 minutes lecture followed by a 15 minutes break, then the lecture is continued for another 45 minutes. Students work with their own hands in the workshop. They are divided in groups with a maximum of 6 students in one group depending on the available space. The lecturer is the one who teaches the students how to work, a technician assists him. I attended a seminar, in which interactive learning was used in a very instructive way.

After lunch, lectures and tutorials are continued and may extend till 7:00 pm.

I am Dalia Yehia, assistant lecturer in clinical pharmacy and pharmacy practice department in the Faculty of pharmacy, Pharos University in Alexandria (PUA). I am a member of summer training committee, and quality committee within Pharos University. Currently, I am a PhD student at the High Institute of Public Health (HIPH), in Alexandria University. 

During Fall 2018, I have been accepted in staff exchange program at the University of Eastern Finland (UEF), in Kuopio, Finland for three months from September till end of November 2018. I went for staff exchange because it holds an opportunity fot joint research, working with multidisciplinary international team in addition to learning about different teaching methodologies.

    In comparison to the situation in Egypt, teaching at UEF  is more or less the same. Regardings research, UEF dedicated its staff and fund for multidisciplinary research groups for new innovations and publications.

    In general, Finns are shy and quiet. From my experience, they are very welcoming, helpful and hospitable. An International once said:” if you make a Finnish friend, you get a lifetime friend.”

Usually the regular day starts early with lectures or research work, then they have a midday lunch break, then they resume the work. During lectures, a break of 5-10 minutes was given to students every one hour. During the practical labs in the clinical pharmacokinetics course, students were required to solve certain number of cases along the course term without adhering to time required for the labs. So that, students can spend the time during the lab which was 4-5 hours in solving the cases, and taking breaks.

    I have participated at the international day at UEF to encourage international students to participate in exchange programs. The best part was conversations I had about Egypt, history, PUA and even Arabic language.

   At the begining of this experience, being away from my comfort zone, and as expected I took some time to get used to using maps, be aware of details of daily life and even reaching home, but based on my previous expeiences and with the help I got from colleagues, roommates, and even people in the street, life become familiar within few days.

    Kuopio is a very beautiful city, full of forests and lakes with wonderful natural scenery. I liked it specially the peace and quietness that surround the place.

    Life in Kuopio is very simple, people use bicycles a lot, and walking is part of their daily life. The idea of recycling is widespread which is very effective in keeping the city clean beside reducing the waste.

    I strongly advice my colleagues to apply for the exchange program in the future to get in touch with different experiences in both research and teaching.

    On a professional level, I have learned new techniques in research work at the lab. Concerning teaching, we started to use softwares like ”Dose me” at PUA that I used at UEF to facilitate Pharmacokinetics measurements of drugs which need therapeutic monitoring. In addition to practices related to evaluating students, and involvement of students in peer reviewing each other. Also considering students’ self-evaluation as an important part of the whole evaluation process.

    On a personal level, it was a rich experience of independency in a different environment. I got to know myself more and learnt to cope within different environment and dealt with cultural differences while keeping my own values.

    I believe that students might have to be involved in similar experiences (might be for shorter or longer period of time) to cooperate with students from other cultures and different backgrounds to increase their self-awareness and to work within multidisciplinary teams as well as to learn independency in searching and to apply systematic approach to understand challenging subjects.

My name is Alina Georgiana Sas. I am a responsible, creative, intelligent, lonely girl.  

I went to PUA for student exchange because I wanted to see the differences between the courses and the laboratories compared to the faculty where I study in Romania. I stayed in PUA 4 month and 17 days.The difference between PUA and the University of Oradea is that in PUA there are many more students in courses and laboratories. At the University of Oradea few professors use projectors, more is used the writing in notebooks by the students.At the University of Oradea we have only one evaluation per semester, only the final exam for each subject at the end of the semester.PUA staff, both the teachers and the laboratory assistants were communicative and helpful.

A normal day as a student in the PUA is like this: in the morning at eight and a half, the first course or laboratory begins where the teacher does not give a break at all until ten and a half. Then if you are lucky you have two hours break and go to eat something and if it does not mean you have the next course and go without a break. In the break you can go to the teacher's office to ask if you didn't understand something in the lesson, and he will help you dearly. After completing the courses one day you can stop at a store with friends from PUA or you go home and prepare for the next day.

The most beautiful experience in PUA were the free Tuesday hours in which activities were carried out with students who wanted to participate, for example a talent shows organized on different days for each faculty. The biggest challenge: I try to express myself with people who do not know English but only Arabic. Alexandria is a very old city with many old buildings, but with a very beautiful view to the sea. You have to have money with you all the time especially if you are a foreigner because everything is paid at triple price compared to if you are Arab.People are very curious and friendly, but stressful. The dirt on the street is a big problem.

I was surprised, that all people want to take pictures with you if they notice that you are from another country.I advise other colleagues visiting PUA to be very well informed with the country in which they go and with the place where they will live. To be interested in the food of the respective country and to be able to cook in the place where they live. Be prepared for the weather as it is different in another country.I learned to deal with myself, without parents and I realized how much it means that you have people around you that you can communicate in your native language.

   

Hi, my name is Andrea Codrean, I am twenty years old, I live in a small village in Romania, I have a brother and a sister and i am studing medical physics in University of Oradea.

In the beginning I just wanted to go and see another culture, another type of people, other opinions and another style of life. When doctor Monica presented me all the courses and the opportunities in PUA I decided to go there. Our exchange period was 4 months and 20 days in Alexandria.

    Read More

The biggest difference is in the labs. In Oradea our labs are more theoretical, but in PUA the practical part was really practical. In Oradea we don’t have a website for the lectures so we have to write it or to buy the book.

Everyone at PUA was cooperating and tried to help us, but it wasn’t that easy to communicate because not everyone knows English.

A usual day started in the morning when we get up to go to coursee, everyday we had a lecture and a lab and in some days an hour or two free between this couses. In those free hours we went to the food court to eat something or to Green plata. And then we go back to our hostel to eat to study for the next day and maybe to go see around Alexandria a little bit

I think the best part in the university was the labs, I love doing things with my own hands. The best part in general was meeting such different and beautiful people. The biggest challenge was the language, its really hard to study just in English since all my life I studyed in Romanian and also not so many people in shops transportation or street speak English and it was hard to ask for help

I think Egypt and Alexandria are so beautiful, there are so many old and impresive places and I love that and also people are soooo friendly, they were satuting us on the street, everyone wants to talk to You to know You, just to be your friend, but so few know English.

The traffic was a surprise, that You can cross the street trough wherever You want. The food, is so delicious. The weather, it was colder than I thought. I advise colleagues coming to PUA in the future to be very patient, to be very friendly and just to enjoy the experience.

On the personal level, I am stronger, I've learned to be more tolerant, I've learned to appreciate all the things I have back home

   

Hi Alaa Mahmoud Khalil, tell me more about yourself and your role at PUA.

How long was the exchange period?

Short Visit, 1st to 5th  OCT; 2018

How do studies and researches at Aristotle University in Thessaloniki (AUTh) differ in comparison to your previous experience?

It was very helpful to visit AUTh, as it is not so far from our pace; they have same economic and social constraints and they are coping with it. I observed the level of technology that they have and how it works in different directions to serve market needs and field requirements (based on companies collaborations and getting funds from scientific projects).

Did Aristotle University in Thessaloniki (AUTh) staff, professors, researcher and others that you met been helpful and easy to communicate, discuss and cooperate

Yes, they were so helpful and very kind. Moreover, I didn’t find any hard to meet them.

Could you describe a regular day as a student or teacher at Aristotle University in Thessaloniki (AUTh)?

By attending lectures I noticed that they don’t have advanced pedagogical strategies than what we have (chalk board, white board, power point presentations and smart screens).

What was the best part of your experience at Aristotle University in Thessaloniki (AUTh)?

I found how they take the challenge of economical issues seriously and cope with it.

What was the biggest challenge for you during your trip?

Some hard and soft materials were written in Greek language.

What are your impressions of Thessaloniki and Greece that you visited?

I felt it almost Alexandria with the sense of ancient Greek.

Is there something about life in Thessaloniki and Greece that has surprised, impressed you?

It is a very youth city.

Do you have any advice for colleagues at PUA that, in the future, will do staff exchange at Aristotle University in Thessaloniki (AUTh)?

Increase the possibility of collaboration with the other departments and Faculties. 

Is there something from your experience that you can bring in to your professional role at PUA?

Knowing considerable pedagogical strategies for teaching courses and ability of building a comprehensive curriculum. Getting the know how of creating new creative, innovative teaching resources. Knowing how they conduct to industrial and actual market needs. Finally, opened possible ways of cooperation between both universities.

What have you taken with you from this experience on a personal level?

Meeting with new people from different culture, enhancing my English language, dealing with different circumstances and finally getting new contacts and friends.

   

Hi Rehab Samir, tell me more about yourself and your role at PUA.

Why did you go to University of Eastern Finland for staff exchange?

I believed that visiting such a reputable University would be of a great value to gain more experience, allowing me to interact and adapt with different cultures and to share experiences with the University staff members. Getting to know the newest teaching methods and how to apply them would serve me in implementing them in our University. I was interested in knowing their scheme on how they evaluate their undergraduate students, motivating them to do better. Moreover, I wanted to see their application of rubrics and how this affects the level of understanding for the students. Another aspect concerning this visit that I would have the opportunity to get involved in sharing their academic advising methods as I believe that academic advising has a great impact on our students’ education and on their success. It was important for me, as well, to be acquainted with modern technologies in caries diagnosis in Pediatric Dentistry and enrich myself with novel research methods enabling me to conduct advanced researches through hopefully collaborative work between Pharos University and the Eastern University of Finland. As a part of my role at the students’ registrar bureau, I am responsible for scheduling the courses timetable for all terms. It is challenging as I have to coordinate the lecturers’ own schedule with the availability of the provided lecture rooms. I hoped through this visit that I would enhance such skill to accomplish it with minimum time and zero error or overlaps.

 How long was the exchange period?

10 days

 How do studies and researches at University of Eastern Finland differ in comparison to your previous experience?

At UEF, instead of an ordinary lab with microscopes, they use multiple large touch screens for slides viewing and zooming during histological and pathological sessions. The lab is equipped with multiple tables where the students sit, and each group can watch on their large screen whatever lesions and tissues or any demonstration needed. They can zoom in to see the finest details of what’s inside the tissue cells. They can touch any part on the screen, so this is a question for the instructor to answer.

They have simulation lab which is much simulating the dental clinic. It has dental units, dental chairs, network and monitors where the student can see the demonstration live through documentation camera. They learn the right sitting position of a dentist and how to hold the handpiece and they are being evaluated for this every session. They work on phantom head attached to thorax to simulate the patient on the dental unit. They have different typodonts to simulate the different dental situations, restorations, pulp therapy, extraction, local anesthesia administration, periodontal diseases, orthodontics and restoration & pulp therapy of primary dentition

The patients’ clinic is highly equipped and uses the highest infection control measures. The students use software to upload the patient’s data and dental charting. They have rooms for making x-ray for their patient which is digitally processed and uploaded to the patient file.

 Did University of Eastern Finland staff, professors, researcher and others that you met been helpful and easy to communicate, discuss and cooperate

Yes, they were all cooperative. Communication with them was accessible as you can knock at any door of any of the professors and the one inside will answer you with all what’s in his power and will help in any possible way.

Could you describe a regular day as a student or teacher at University of Eastern Finland?

Most of them get to the campus riding a bicycle. They start their day at 8 am whether a lecture, lab,  simulator or a clinic. They have a lunch break from 11 am to 1 pm. They finish the working day by 4 pm

 What was the best part of your experience at University of Eastern Finland?

They have the priorities of caries prevention as a community measure. They have difficulty in recruiting patients as dental caries is not prevailing in the country. The best part showed up when I had only one chance to see a pediatric patient. He was caries free and was smiling and cooperative during the dental examination although he was just a three year old child.

What was the biggest challenge for you during your trip?

Internal transportation from or to Helsinki airport. Although natives are so friendly but the signs were not always in English and of course getting on the wrong train or missing its departure were great problems to me.

 What are your impressions of Kuopio and Finland that you visited?

Clean environment. You can breathe fresh air. Everything is on time. Quiet and non crowded streets. Very cold weather compared to Egypt. It was rainy most of the time but you can’t trace it on the ground

Is there something about life in Kuopio and Finland that has surprised, impressed you?

I was truly fascinated by the forestry there. What I saw in this country was so impressive; its cleanliness, its quietness. It is a friendly society and all citizens are decent, polite and cheerful greeting you with a smile and are most helpful.

Do you have any advice for colleagues at PUA that, in the future, will do staff exchange at University of Eastern Finland?

I think it would be better in the future if the going staff will communicate with the staff there before traveling and to have a solid plan to execute upon arriving. It was a little bit foggy for both sides in the beginning. PhD students should have the chance to go and do research with the staff over there. It is not possible for dental researchers to work there on patients as they don’t have license, but this could be overcome through invitro studies.

Is there something from your experience that you can bring in to your professional role at PUA?

Definitely. I already used one of their interactive teaching methods in my lectures for senior students. I also told other staff members about these new methods and how to use them in their courses.

What have you taken with you from this experience on a personal level?

Just meeting with new people and being in contact with new cultures is of great value to expand my own way of thinking.

 

   

I am Dr. Mohamed Elkholy, and I am lecturer at Computer Engineering Department Faculty of Engineering at PUA

Studies in University of Eastern Finland differ in using highly interactive methods especially with the implementation of flipped classroom project and changing the learning environment.  Research in University of eastern Finland is very advanced with high-tech instruments and advanced lab facilities. Researchers’ high intellectual capability also ensures highly advanced studies in all fields.

All staff & professors at university of Eastern Finland were very cooperative and tried to help us to fulfill our timetable and arrange additional on-site meetings.

The best part of my visit to university of eastern Finland is exchanging different intellectual & cultural insights with professors and researchers. My biggest challenge is to benefit maximally from my visit time to arrange meetings and see new implemented techniques in teaching and research.

Kuopio, Finland is a small beautiful city full of lakes & forest with a charming nature. It’s very quiet especially with its small population. However, people are very kind and helpful. I was surprised how people in Kuopio, Finland love liquorice! They have a large variety of liquorice products. I was glad to see snow falling on the trees on my last day, it was a different experience for me although all people there were annoyed form snow falling almost half of the year.

My advice for colleagues at PUA who will travel to arrange their schedule before their visit for more meetings and tour visits to explore all university facilities.

The advanced teaching techniques, particularly flipped classroom techniques that I have explored in the partner university can be brought to my university especially that development of more interactive learning environment gain special focus in PUA. On the personal level, i have recognized different culture and observed a different country form my home country. I have learned about Finnish people and Finnish culture.

 

   

I travelled  to JAMK University for applied science for teaching staff exchange for 5 Days.  I have been nominated by my faculty dean and interviewed by high level committee assigned by the University. 

The studies and researches at JAMK University for applied science differ in comparison to my previous experience as it provides:

  • Extensive range of interactive and self learning strategies.
  • Modern learning environments, skilled personnel and excellent services
  • Well-equipped facilities and libraries providing free computer services and Internet access.

 Staff, professors, researchers and others of JAMK University for applied science were very helpful and easy to communicate, discuss and cooperate.

 My regular day as a teacher at JAMK University for applied science starts by Campus tour , meetings with staff members or adminstration, then giving lecture, Lunch, complete lecture, leaving campus to make free city tour, or visit to home of a staff member.

The best part of my experience at JAMK University for applied science was giving lectures to international students, concept lab session attendance, home visit to one of the teaching staff, and attending ice hockey match.
The biggest challenge for me during my trip was the train that i have to change in a certain point within ten minutes.

My impressions of Finland  and Jyväskylä city are:

Finland is a nordic country deserves being  number one  poulation in happiness indicator world wide, also the first educational system in Europe , and the 4th rank in education system worldwide, with population of 5 millions, and very developed transportation system , in addition to their advanced rank in technology.

Jyväskylä  is a beatiful city, with very friendly and civilized  population about 300 000 people .Furthermore, it is a student-friendly city offering a wide range of activities and opportunities,  a modern centre for industry and learning, a “pocket size metropol” with a lively urban centre,  all the services, shops, schools and work are close at hand, and a wide variety of leisure and sport activities.

My advices for colleagues at PUA that, in the future, will do staff exchange at JAMK University for applied science, that  they have to focus on  their predefined goals and discuss every detail in their visiting agenda, focus on practical results, new ideas and practicies. Moreover, find out the reasons behind every differnt and new teaching method. And Finally try to develop and mainatin an excellent and continous relationship with their teaching staff.

This experience added to my professional role at PUA a lot, including new practices such as innovation week, new courses like concept lab, new teaching strategies such as self-learning, and removing pressure on students (tasks due dates, and  exams)  preparing online courses, as well as, using the available resources effectively such as the Library.

I have taken with me from this experience on a personal level, was how to acheive the educational goals without pressure on my students, as well as, the great experience of teaching mobility for international students, experiencing new culture, and building excellent network with experts and teaching staff at JAMK University.

How long was the exchange period?

Twelve days

How do studies and researches at University of Eastern Finland (UEF) differ in comparison to your previous experience?

Research have a great priority in UEF. (PhD students have time for finishing their manuscript & they are exempted from extra activities for that)

They work in multidisciplinary groups

More time is given for practical sessions than lectures

Self-study and diaries are presented in many courses

Courses are taken over a short period of time (two weeks) and then other courses are taken

What have you taken with you from this experience on a personal level?

I have to give attention to my research

   

The Aristotle University staff, professors, researcher and others that I met, are very helpful and easy to communicate, discuss and cooperate. For example, the first day, I met Professor Glavinis (the supporter) who help me to know all about the faculty of law education system, staff, student and administration (particularly the library stuff). Professor Glavinis help me to organize the lectures and workshop (best part of my experience). He invited Professors and doctoral students to participate in a workshop on the Egyptian policy in  the field of gas transportation infrastructure development for the   transport of natural gas from Egypt to Europe,  which took place at the Faculty of Law of Aristotle University of   Thessaloniki, Wednesday 29 May 2019, at 18:00', at the Dean's  Conference Room. The workshop was taking place within the framework of the research Project "Integrating Energy Markets in the Wider Europe" implemented by the Faculty of Law of AUTh.

Concerning the undergraduate students at AUTh, earning a degree requires successful examination in a total of fifty (50) courses, including:

  • thirty-seven (37) mandatory courses, and
  • thirteen (13) elective courses.

Attending certain courses requires prior successful examination in one or more requisite courses.

Many, among the most important is that in Thessaloniki is located The Aristotle University, which is the largerst Greek University, which means many young students. Mild climate, excellent structure of the roads, hospitallity, low criminality, sea, mountain etc are also contributing in its fame as a city for young people, but also older people enjoy living in Thessaloniki. Young people are just better communicating their preference better, they may move and reestablish easier, while older people do not easily change their living practices. It’s a safe place. There are no terrorists and there is almost no crime. People are cool and in most cases friendly. It is the second biggest city in Greece. There are fast food restaurants that are open 24 hours a day. The shops are all together so you go to the city center and you have them all. There is public transport to move around.

I can tell my experience in the following points:

- Play a decisive role in academic exchange, good practices dissemination, and knowledge diffusion.

- Support multicultural co-existence, social and cultural cohesion, and promote sustainable regional development.

- Make multilateral, rather than unilateral approach, a core aspect of our work in education, research and administrative level.

- The most important is the development of some of the methods of interactive learning that I use to teach some courses.

Best regards

Walid Fahmy

Associate Professor and Vice dean of the faculty of legal Studies for student affairs

I participated in Staff Mobility within the Erasmus+ program for training at school of technology, JAMK University of Applied Sciences, Jyväskylä, Finland in field of cyber security from 12th to 16th  November, 2018. During my visit to JAMK University, I had multiple tasks and activities such as, attending lectures in school of technology, seminars, participation in some project, visiting labs, workshops and the library.

The studies and researches at JAMK University of Applied Sciences differ in comparison to my previous experience. Actually, JAMK has a high quality of education system. JAMK provides students with an internationally accredited education to develop their skills for the global labour market. JAMK Education system is quick to adapt and adopt innovative studding methods and techniques, for example, problem-based learning. The learning system characterized by the continuum of discussion, cooperation and seeking of information in the formation process of ideas making the finnish education unique.

Really, JAMK University of Applied Sciences staff members , professors and researchers that I met been helpful and easy to communicate, discuss and cooperate with them. Also. Spoken English for staff member was excellent that facilitated the communication between us. As well as, international relationship members at JAMK University presented me the brochures and maps that help me more inside and outside the campus.  In addition to these, JAMK University has an information desk which provided me with all information I needed about, locations of study rooms, timetables and activites.

The best part of my experience at JAMK University of Applied Sciences was increasing my exposure to international experiences, connecting with professional staff members and researchers in the field of Engineering, visiting advanced labs in the electronics and cyber security, identifying new teaching and interactive learning methods in the study classes and finally identifying different culture and visiting new places.

The biggest challenge for me during my trip was the cold weather in Finland. Jyväskylä has a cold weather during the winter months, with temperatures averaging from - 22 to -3°C. During my visit in November, temperature was about 7 °C. Another challenge was difficulties with students and staff member who don`t speak English well and understand Finnish only.

Jyväskylä is a very clean and organized city. It has an excellent public transport network such as railway station and bus station which were nearby my accommodation there. The city is not crowded and has a few number of population.  Finnish people are blond people and most friendly. Finland has many land scape and interesting places. Jyväskylä is surrounded by beautiful natural water in all directions, such as Jyväskylä Lakes. Also it has Jyväskylä Harbour which has a nice view. As well as , Alvara Alto Museuma which is a Finnish museum in Jyväskylä, specialized in architecture and design and functions as the national and international center on all things Aalto(i.e. Hugo Alvar Henrik Aalto was a Finnish architect and designer, his work includes architecture, furniture, textiles and glassware, as well as sculptures and paintings). 

The most thing that surprised me in Jyväskylä, Finland is that most of people in Jyväskylä don`t use cars or other engine vehicles; instead they use bicycle inside the city. Also, most of shops and malls are closed at about 8:00 pm. As well as, Finish people are very athletes; Gyms are everywhere in the city. 

Indeed, I want to advise my colleagues at PUA that, in the future, will do staff exchange at JAMK University of Applied Sciences to learn more and more about interactive learning techniques and methods in lectures.

I have taken more and more from this experience on a personal level. I had increased my exposure to international experiences, connected with professional staff in the field of research, investigated modern and recent software to be applied in my PhD study, and increased my knowledge in cyber security field, identified new culture, learned new ideas, suggestions and techniques to be applied in my career, also, I had learned new innovation courses. In addition to these, travelled to new place and visiting new places.
