The Faculty of Electrical Engineering is an excellent choice that I would repeat. The courses are well structured and the professors are very dedicated. A lot can be learned. I’m studying software engineering, which has the disadvantage that the number of budget places is limited, but it’s very well designed, so in my opinion it’s worth it. College is demanding, but with good work habits it is not impossible to finish it on time.

The classes and examinations are very well organized, for my major at least. We learn interesting and challenging material mostly but I do think there should be a wider selection for elective classes.
I find that the administration is more strict than I think it ought to be and the division for student help is unhelpful at times.

The University of Belgrade consists of many buildings all over the city. School of Electrical Engineering is located in the centre of Belgrade, and it has excellent connections with all parts of the town. Other than great location, School of Electrical Engineering is ranked in the top in the region. Moreover, the students which are enrolled are among the best ones in the country. The duration of studies is 4 years for Bachelor’s degree and 1 year for obtaining the Master’s degree. The entrance exam could be regarded as challenging, however, with good preparations, it isn’t that difficult and it will be completely worth it. A lot of hard work has to be invested in studies, nevertheless, most of the lectures are not obligatory. What is characteristic for this faculty is that students get a lot of valuable knowledge, and they are very adaptable to working conditions.
I study in the Department of Software Engineering. All classes are either in the morning or the afternoon depending on the year of studies. Laboratory exercises are always in the opposite shift. This is helpful since everyone is able to organize their time accordingly and not spend whole days at the university, which could be the case with other departments. The lectures are organized in blocks and each block lasts for 4 weeks and then we have one week with the only test, we have 3 blocks per semester, and then exam periods. What I value the most is the experience we are able to get during studies. Laboratory exercises are a great opportunity to put everything learnt in practice and they are organized relatively often. Also, we worked on many projects. Professors and assistants are in general very professional and there to help with any difficulty which might happen during the learning process.
Last but not least, I would like to mention that we have students organisations which are enriching the students’ life.
I would definitely recommend my department to anyone who is interested in programming. You will learn a lot and at the end of the studies, you will have many things to put into CV. Which will be certainly beneficial towards the professional career.

I believe the quality of different departments vary a lot, so I can only review the School of Electrical Engineering which I’m attending. Overall, we learn a lot, although we don’t dedicate enough time to anything specific to become proficient in it. It teaches us how to think like engineers, and problem solving, so that we can apply it to any problem. The facilities could be better as we do not have enough space or equipment. Professors keep their lectures relevant to the industry and keep up with new technologies, improving from year to year. I believe that we are well prepared after we graduate and can easily find a job.
