What is a technical university?

What University should I choose? Swansea, East Anglia or Kent?

• Hi :) I have to apply for uni by the 15th of October and I have to decide between; Swansea University, University of east Anglia and the University of Kent. I want to study International Business, in Swansea you can have a year abroad in a university in Europe, Australia or North America. You can do the same in Kent but only in Europe and it is to work. In the University of East Anglia I can only do normal Business Management so the course is only 3 years long without a masters degree and so you can not have a year abroad. So the course I think I like the most International Business in Swansea because I like the idea of going to America or Australia because it would be a once in a lifetime opportunity to experience a university in one of those countries. The only problem is I do not know where in Australia or North America I would be studying, is it only partner universities or can you choose any? At university I would like to get a good degree but at university you need to have fun :) this is a very important subject to where I choose to study. At Swansea University I hear the clubs and societies are very good, I would like to do 'snowriders' and various others, also at University of East Anglia. I'm not sure whether they do it at Kent, I would also like a university with a very good nightlife. So at the moment I am very drawn to Swansea as I really like the course, the clubs and societies are great and the area is meant to have a great nightlife and also you are next to the beach :) Half of the students at Swansea are Welsh and half are from England. I'm from Essex, do you think they'd be welcoming to English people haha? I hear everyone is really friendly there and I get a long with everyone I meet :) UEA is in Norwich, I have not heard much about the area though, is it nice? and what are the people like? I hear Kent is nice, I think its in Canterbury, is it nice there? :P Any information on the area, people, course and university is greatly appreciated :) Thanks.
