Universidad Peruana de Ciencias Aplicadas - UPC (reviews)

I loved UPC it had a great environment. Class sizes were keep to a max of ~30 students. With smaller classes there was more interaction with professors.
The program helped me improve my abilities and have a better understanding on how things work in real life

The university was a complete challenge for me, although I consider that UPC must invest in try to create more deep relations between the students and the university, because I felt during my whole years there that there was a making money goal behind everything.

I like the Universidad Peruana de Ciencias Aplicadas, they have a lot of different programs all of them with 2 titles, so you can select a perfect program for you and when you end the program you have double specialization. The program is very intense you have to get a higher note than the other universities here. Most of the programs have a duration of 5 years so you have time to learn and also to start getting work experience. Most of the teachers work in important companies so could help you make better decisions about what places was better to work and why. The UPC gives you all the tools to reach for the job you want. The campus was very big and they have 4 different locations where they develop the different programs. You also have the possibility of practising sports or participating in elective courses that are good to learn new skills and knowing more people and having more friends.

It is however an expensive university, that’s one of the big problems of education in my home country, Perú.

Education is way too expensive, and national education is almost impossible to get because there are way too many people trying to get in.

I think the best way to knowing another culture is by visiting it. You never know until you live it, that s why in UPC, you have the chance of living and breathing every day of our culture and get to know it well. This university grants access to students to feel the experience of learning about a way of living by facilitating materials, good teachers, large innovative campus and enhanced methodology.
