Nirupam Kumar Mundra, Game Development student at Algebra University from India shares his experiences and what brought him to Croatia in the first place.
I am from India. We don’t have any university that offers game development Master-level studies. I was looking for universities across Europe, and I found out that the programme I am looking for is offered in Zagreb, at Algebra. The main factors I chose education in Croatia is the curriculum and the tuition fee, which is very affordable. The reason why I wanted to study in Europe is because it is rich in culture and people. I feel like I am on another planet, which I don’t want to leave.
When it comes to studies in Croatia, I can speak all day about things that surprised me. I was amazed how we can sit randomly in class with no gender rules. Algebra has an application where we can track our grades, attendance, and check exams & news. I love swiping my college ID card when I enter class for attendance. I know all these things are very common here but not for me. Especially, I love the teaching structure. One day of lectures and another day of labs is a perfect way to learn.
What I see is making friends here is easy, everyone here is polite, friendly & welcoming. In my three years in Zagreb, I never encountered any racism or toxicity in students or outside.
