The University of the Andes is an architectural paradise. It has large spaces for us students, green areas, study areas, rest areas and of course also entertainment areas. The university has a campus that allows students to discover their passion for their chosen career but also discover themselves as a person and as a member of the Uniandean community.
View moreThe MSc. in Biomedical Sciences was a program that existed before the Biomedical Engineering Department came up. This program was between two Universities: Universidad de Los Andes, Mechanical Department and Universidad del Rosario, Medicine Faculty.
I received a lot of support from both while selecting the subjects I wanted to take, We had a problem with one of the professors because he wanted us to quit, because we were not engineers; even though the program involved our profiles.
This MSc. Disappeared in 2014.
The PhD in Sciences program is very complete, the professors know a lot about different subjects and you can learn a variety of matters. They allow you to reach a point in your research where knowledge is new to humanity, that is the final aim of a PhD. The thing I liked the most about the program is that it is mandatory to go to another country to make at least 6 months of research with another research group. They also support you financially.
They could improve the support and time each professor can give to each student. The thing about doing a PhD is that it is hard, and most of the job you will have to figure out how to do it by yourself. This is not a problem of Universidad de Los Andes, it is worldwide, and I wish I had the support I needed before I felt completely lost. Many PhDs have this issue around the world, I wish I had known all those things before starting the program. Now I am trying to help more students, so they won’t feel alone or lost during this professional step.
View moreUniversidad de los Andes is agreat university. Teachers are very well studied and are very interested in students knowledge. They are always willing to help when it is required. Although their studies, some teachers dont have teaching abilities to provide knowledge in the best way. On the other hand, the university is well equipped with everything students need to accomplish their tasks, buildings are really comfortable and bring a very cool space to live the university life. This university is really great
