IADE Creative University - IADE Speciality : Art & Design
programme: Design

Great ideas, horrible execution. I paid ~700 a month to be treated with apathy by 80% of professors and faculty, being assigned things without more than half of them failing to provide the adequate (base) knowledge or tools, and having the nerve to be rude about our results. Everything we produced, we all had to teach ourselves online or face a bad grade and a scolding. Not to mention that the curriculum is made up as we go. You heard that right. Our winter/holiday break was even moved I read so many reviews on Google of people saying to save your money and teach yourself on YouTube. After a full year of my classmates dropping out because of this cruel disorganized chaos, I can agree with all the negative reviews I had previously read but wanted to optimistically ignore. I understand my review seems harsh but you would understand after it almost sends you to su*cide. And I know it wasn’t just me.

It’s a really fun programme although we always have a lot of assignments, but it’s a good way to prepare us for the future. I would definitely recommend this programme to anyone that wants to study design, it also gives us international opportunities.

The curriculum is very wide which is good because we try everything and can have a better idea of what we like or not. The COVID was bad for the students because the work we do is practical so it was hard to maintain that aspect at home.
