Student review [#47777] for Aeronautical Engineering
at University of Beira Interior - UBI

The city that this University is located is a calm, small and cheap city, which is perfect for students.
The engineering faculty is small and easy to navegate. There are different types of classrooms, some confortable but some are a nightmare to sit in for hours.
Regarding the teachers, it depends. Some are nice, some are not.
For my deggree there is a huge lack regarding the technical side of engineering. It would be better if the curriculum included classes where we could “get our hands dirty”.
The University care for the students is what takes the score down to three stars. Uncortable chairs and a couple of mean professors are nothing compared to the desregard the University has for its students. For example, they are not strict with teachers giving marks so some teachers take 2 or 3 months to give us the scores for our tests. They also do not take into consideration the students opinions, which is weird since they force us to rate and give our opinion on the classes and professors at the end of each semester.
The city also does not respect the students very much, which is weird considering the studentys are the main life of this city. For example as a aeronautical engineering student it was very important to have an airfield in the city, which it did but it was replaced by a giant pen drive. YES THE CITY HAD A FULL FUNCTIONING AIRFIELD THAT WAS REPLACED BY A GIANT PEN DRIVE. And everytime we look at the data center we get reminded of the previous use of that area since they build it right in the middle of were the runway of the airfield was.
