University of Bucharest - UB (reviews)

I studied at the University of Bucharest, and my experience was generally positive. Some professors were very knowledgeable and encouraged critical thinking, especially in applied psychology courses, which I found engaging and useful.

On the downside, administrative processes could be slow and sometimes unclear. The university doesn’t have a traditional campus, but its central location offers access to many cultural and social opportunities.

Overall, it’s a good choice for students who are proactive and independent.

As a student in my second year at the faculty of psychology, it has a fair amount of upsides, the facilities overall are good, some really great teachers. On the downsides the students are not well kept up to date on most things, it’s tough to communicate with the administration for more particular inquiries.

My time at the University of Bucharest was genuinely one of the most enriching experiences of my life. The faculty in the Faculty of Letters were incredibly knowledgeable and always willing to engage in deeper discussions beyond the curriculum. The historic campus in the heart of the city made studying feel special, and the vibrant student community made it easy to form lasting friendships. The only downside was the occasional bureaucratic hurdle when dealing with administrative offices, but that’s a small price to pay for an otherwise excellent education.

I fell like University of Bucharest could have been better if they really cared about their students more. As a student, I needed career guidance, which I didn’t receive at all, especially because in Romania is hard to find a good job after you finish college. The conditions in college and the campus life were not the best either.
