The University of Porto is located very close to the center, the campus is immense and beautiful but it is not well adapted for disabled people, once there are a lot of stairs and tight corridors. Besides this, the structure is very good and it is a comfortable place to study either in the library or outside among the trees. During my course, I’ve faced great teachers that are dedicated to the students and give amazing classes, but I have also had some unpleasant teachers who are rude and disrespectful towards the students, especially immigrants. The hours are usually well distributed so students who may need to work can do it without missing classes. The programme is very good and the professors try and keep everyone at the same level, which sometimes may even be repetitive but still great. On the other hand, classes are mostly expositive and not very interactive, which can be a problem depending on the student. Nonetheless, to study in between those walls in the marvelous city of Porto, with internationally renowned researchers is for sure a very rewarding experience.
