University of Pavia - UNIPV (reviews)

The content of the program is very good. There are many course options. Professors and assistants are very engaged with students. They also support us according to our needs. One of the most important shortcomings of the school is that it does not provide students with practical course options and the opportunity to gain clinical experience. Students are required to find an institution where they will voluntarily do their internship. There are many international students in the department. This is a good advantage for the social environment. Apart from these, Pavia is a nice place to live.

The program is enlightening and has many job opportunities. The lectures are well broken down and taught to understand. In general a great place to be and experience. I hope to have a great stay until I finish my studies.

As a first-year student, the school environment was accommodating and hospitable. I got a scholarship which helped a lot. They welcome students from all over the world and the method of teaching is accessible and easy.

The University of Pavia is in the centre of the city, the location is quite good because Pavia is a really nice city for students: it’s full of young people and easy to reach. Like other universities, it offers some valid courses, and some less interesting, but after all I’m satisfied with my choice.

So, my course is a specialized course that comes under Electronic Engineering. This course primarily focuses on Space communication and its domain. The professors here have not only helped gain insight theoretically but pragmatically too. I am almost on the verge of graduation and currently undergoing thesis work with one exam yet to take.

The University of Pavia offers so many courses to international students, but It doesn’t provide the facilities they need. At the minimum level, student housing is a huge problem. Even after three months from the start of the program, lots of students still don’t have a place to stay.

First of all, I would like to say that the University of Pavia contains lots of international students. However, I’m not sure if there is enough support for us. When I first came here I struggled so much with finding accommodation. After 3 weeks I managed to find one. But it affected a lot my efficiency in classes and I had to waste so much money. Other than that I think everything is satisfying, but keep in mind what I said if you’re an international student planning to settle in Pavia.

The program is vast and covers so many areas so that each student is allowed to discover their path over time, day by day. Teachers are incredibly qualified and are able to make you glimpse the possibilities you have for each area in the future; their passion for the work itself involves you in concrete and satisfying reality.

The University of Pavia is one of the most ancient universities in Italy and in the world. Pavia is a small town, perfect for the young students that leave their house for the first time. It is also incredibly cheap for students, offering a lot of opportunities for free time, like sports, bars, restaurants and local concerts. Professors are incredibly competent and put their students in the first place. The university offers a great variety of classes and degrees, even in the English language, and tutors are always available to help students outside of the scholastic time.
I started my journey at the University of Pavia seven years ago, when I started my bachelor’s in Biotechnology. I fell in love with the classes, because I could have touch with my hand the passion for Science and knowledge all around me. In the Biology and Biotechnology Department, professors love their job and can transmit this passion to their students. During my career, I had also the opportunity to travel abroad with Erasmus Traineeship, to expand my network and my experiences, like many of my colleagues could have done, thanks to the scholarships offered by the university.
I strongly recommend this University for all the young students that want to start their path in a competitive but friendly environment, without all the disadvantages that a bigger city could bring.

Unipv is very well organized and is based on a collegial system which is its unique characteristic. The services it offers are of the highest quality and always based on research and innovation. It is made to measure for the needs of the students, precisely because it is closely connected to the system of colleges, which makes it possible to expand the facilities on the university it can rely on, and this guarantees a unique cultural offer.
