Student review [#104323] for Economics
at Nova School of Business and Economics

Great location, professors and support staff. Good infrastructure and overall administration. My critics are regarding how the university organizes the curriculum. Courses are still mostly theoretical and practical classes are simply dedicated time to answer textbook exercises with no or little practical professional (“practical”) application. Theory is hugely important, but it is a base in which the Bachelor’s should build on top of, instead of leaving all the work to a Master’s or internships.
Very poor offer of Finance courses in the Bachelor’s. In my opinion there should be a lot more electives surrounding such a popular topic.
Campus life is abundant, amazing beach nearby and the clubs are the soul of the university.
