Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro - UFRJ (reviews)

This is my last year of Social Work at UFRJ and it has been a good journey so far. The university is a great environment for new discoveries, with interesting and innovative research and extension projects and extremely qualified professors.
It was excellent to experience what the University offers and the Social Work course at UFRJ is the best it can be!
However, when we think about criticism, I believe that the university needs more investment so that basic conditions are maintained and students have access to quality education (which it does) in a quality environment.

I am a student at ECO (School of Communication) at UFRJ and I think the faculty is very good in terms of teaching and a good social environment, however, it has some infrastructure problems that could be improved a lot! There is almost never water, the university restaurant has queues of 40 minutes sometimes, the buildings are in terrible condition. Overall it’s a good college and I like it, but these infrastructural problems need to be improved

Being at UFRJ is living a dream. In addition to graduation, there are many branches that you can follow there, such as scientific initiation, participating in free language courses or even working in them, participating in lectures that usually include very important people in the area, pedagogical support, and what differentiates the university on others it is contact with the best professors in the country. They know a lot about the field they teach.
As a public institution, the infrastructure is not the best. At my college, I’ve seen toilets out of toilet paper and classrooms with broken paintwork, and in some, the air conditioning doesn’t work.
People, from what I see in my course, are very welcoming and know how to deal with social differences.
I highly recommend.

Ufrj is an amazing college, always among the best in the country, it was number one in the last federal evaluation! Like all public educational institutions in Brazil, our infrastructure is left out. As a student at the Faculty of Architecture and Urbanism at UFRJ, I can say that it is sad to see the situation of our building and the courses that inhabit it. However, the university city is a place where science and research are increasingly connected with the city and proposals for effective action inside and outside the countryside. The college expands to practice life in our city!
