University of Eastern Piedmont - Upo (reviews)

My general thoughts about the university is quite positive but especially our departments supervisors are so helpfull all the time. Whenever we needed something they could help us and return to emails so quickly.

Studying in the Piedmont region gives you a lower cost of living compared to nearby Milan or Turin, while still keeping you well-connected to major economic hubs for future internships and job opportunities. Many of its departments, particularly in the medical, economic and scientific field, are highly ranked nationally for their research output. Because UPO is distributed accross 3 main hubs (Vercelli, Alessandria and Novara) the campuses are manageable and less chaotic. You can interact with professors, ask question and get a genuine guidance.

So far, my experience at the university has been very positive. The facilities are well-equipped with high-quality instruments, and the staff are highly qualified. Since my program is medically focused, having solid hands-on experience is essential, and the lab work here has exceeded my expectations.

I have studied Master’s in Food, Health, and Environment. I had the opportunity to study under great professors who were friendly and always helpful. Whether it’s laboratory work or theoretical classes, they were up to the mark of the course initiatives. I especially liked the methods of exams conducted because they tested both the writing and speaking skills through presentations and written exams.
