Student review [#22206] for International Relations
at University of Lisbon - ULisboa

Everybody knows how stressful university life can be but a lot can change depending on our motivation! On one hand, being an International Relations student at ISCSP, the political studies center of UL, has changed a lot of my beliefs and showed me that my future can be a beautiful canvas of knowledge and opportunities. So, even in hard times when giving up seems like the only choice, I keep believing that my best days are ahead of me not in my present challenges. But on the other hand, the old way of teaching and the evaluation process can be very unfair for an XXI century motivated youth. The way some teachers communicate can be very frustrating and the way of giving grades, where we feel like we are measured by numbers, is most of the time super demotivating. So, in general, I would say that despite all the great points of it, this program is not only a classic one but old in a not so good way.
