During my Fulbright experience, I spent my grant period in the stunning UNESCO Wachau Valley, home to IMC University of Applied Sciences Krems (IMC Krems), where historic baroque buildings have been transformed into modern educational spaces. With its diverse programs and vibrant international community, IMC Krems is an excellent choice for prospective students seeking a unique European education.
