Polytechnic Institute of Bragança - IPB Speciality : Management
programme: International Business Management

IPB is a sanctuary for international students who don’t speak português. The environment is warm and welcoming, and the professors are both demanding and caring. It was a beautiful 3 years of my life.

As far as I am concerned, Polytechnic Institute of Bragança is a well-qualified university; first of all, it offers different projects and internships to its students for example last year I worked on the project ” Ubiquitous universities ” with the DEMOLA PROJECT. Besides, the educational methodology used is interesting because it is mainly based on diverse methods ‘ project work, written exam …’. However, I dislike the organization of the timetable as some courses are given at a late time of the day ”8 pm. Last but not least I highly recommend my university to students who are seeking to be in an international area.

The school has a receptive and friendly environment for international students. The degree reaches a lot of study fields. It’s focused on management, and that is the thing that I don’t appreciate, as it sometimes feels like we’re repeating contents. I’d rather have not only one chance to try other fields, for example, we only have Economics 2 times or International Relations 1 time.
The thing that I like the most is that this degree and the institution offer the possibility of choosing a curricular unit in the 2nd and in the 3rd year, out of all the subjects that the institution has.
