Would you recommend it?
I would not recommend that much because the appartment was a little dirty when we first came and was a bit expensive for what we can find in Nanjing and for the problem in the appartment that we had. But the hood was good ( shops, food, metro station, basketball fields, etc around the building)
🍻 Social Life
What are some top bars, clubs, or events you recommend?
Clubs in Nanjing and also everywhere in China were surprisely very good and all the people are nice and friendly there (our personal experience), In nanjing I would recommand Kaos club and Class 313 near the Kaos. ( A lot of foreigners in Class 313 ). For the bars the city is the best for that but you can find very easily some place to go out.
🎓 Uni life at Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics
Which classes do you recommend… or not?
Classes are pretty easy and they don't care too much about us. I would recommend Industrial Engeneering class, Chinese for beginners ( not very easy but important to learn chinese ). We took chinese history, principle of management, critical thinking, Artificial Intelligence, they were not that much funny but we could miss class and have nothing and also it allowed us to have only 3 days of class and have the rest of the week to travel.
Do you have some tips?
The campus is beautiful, pleasant and very big. Lot of sports fields and a lot of different students from all over the World. Registration is not that easy because its China but we were followed by someone. If i have no choice to take the same uni again it won't be a problem. ( you can also use electric scooter, bikes or take the bus inside the uni )
