More details about the country
Albania is a Southeastern European country located on the Balkan Peninsula. It can be found between the countries Montenegro, Kosovo, the Republic of Macedonia and Greece. It is a country which until recent years has been isolated from the rest of the world due to certain restrictions caused by the government of that time. However, as a result of the political changes it has undergone, Albania is now a destination which is steadily growing in popularity among tourists and students. This is due to the country’s geography as well as the diverse culture, history, and architecture. For instance, one can explore its many mountains or visit the Adriatic shore. There is also the benefit of the relatively hospitable climate and the equally hospitable local populace. The capital is Tirana, home to several of Albania’s popular tourist sites and universities.
Albania provides plentiful opportunities for obtaining a high-quality Bachelor’s or Master’s degree, as well as ample chances to gain more experience in certain fields of expertise. Such conveniences arise from the country’s many universities, each providing a wide range of higher education programs at affordable rates. Among the popular ones tend to be Finance and Banking, Business, Law and Jurisprudence, Management as well as Economics. Such programs are popular as as they provide the knowledge and skills needed to participate in some of the most vital areas of modern society. Among the popular choices when it comes to the universities are Aleksander Moisiu University, the University of Tirana and the Polytechnic University of Triana. Apart from the programs themselves there is also quite a large number of projects which involve the students into society both within and outside of university (examples include Peace Corps’ Health Education Volunteers, English Education Volunteers or the Community and Organization Development Program).
