Program: Masters in Bioinformatics in Health Sciences
Choosing to enter the Bioformatics program at UPF was a huge disappointment. I have never experienced such an inefficient, unprepared, and undedicated cohort of administrators, secretaries, and program leaders. Everyone takes several days to respond to questions and continually pass you off to other people. The feeling they instill in their students is that they are undependable, and you are just a tuition payment rather than a person.
Especially for non-EU students (who will be paying double the price as everyone else), trust me and spend your money elsewhere.

And the exams were always before the holidays! First Christmas in many years that I did not have to worry about studying or a project!
About the teachers, they were quite involved and they cared that you learned the lessons. They were researchers from different labs, many even were PIs in their own groups. They had experience and up to date knowledge, so it felt like we were learning cutting edge information. Overall, everything was good.
