Escola Politécnica da Universidade de Sao Paulo - USP (reviews)

The main campus in São Paulo city functions like a micro-city. It offers heavily subsidized meals (R$ 2.00), free intra-campus buses, vast sports complexes, museums, and a legendary student party culture.

The university is generally good, but plaged with activism. In subjects where you’d expect technical and unbiased learning, you’re bombarded with activism, the left bias in the university is breath taking, and any opposition to it is seen as extremism.

My opinion is that, in general, this university is very good, a good place to study, and it’s located in a good area. But unfortunately, not everyone there is there to study; some are there to have fun or argue about political issues, which is the case for some professors and students. It should be an environment for personal and professional growth, but we are somewhat far from that.

The university has a name, but it is a mess; teenagers aren’t there to study, just to hang out with friends and girls. The content is repetitive because teachers need to explain everything again, and it is boring as hell.
