The best thing about the university is the quality of its professors, in addition to the great career possibilities that the university gives you when you go out into the world of work. It is one of the most prestigious universities in Spain in social science

Pompeu Fabra is a well-known university in Barcelona, also around Spain. It has a lot of international opportunities as it has good exchange opportunities and lots of classes in English.
The educational level of the university is high. What’s more, the professors are really well qualified with previous experiences in the fields they are teaching. However, sometimes being the best in something doesn’t make you the best to teach so as you also have to know how to share your knowledge. That’s the only thing that is wrong with the university as it has qualified people but that sometimes they don’t know how to explain it well, but they know how to do it.

However, still with those little imperfections of the university as it has a good reputation is easy to find an internship.

And the marks in the UPF aren’t really high but because the exams sometimes are too much difficult.

Universitat Pompeu Fabra is a very good university. hey are always making sure they are in the best universities rankings in the world but actually, they deserve to be in them.

I studied Audiovisual Communication there and I have to say it was very good. Although they need to improve a lot of things, in general I am very satisfied. Most of the teachers are very good professionals and intellectuals who have a lot to teach you. Also, the subjects are not only theory lectures, as we also have the opportunity to practice and, in our case, create shortfilms, documentaries, film in a TV set, write real film scripts… In addition, the installations are very good. Even if the Communication Campus is not very big, it has everything you could ever need while studying there.

Nevertheless, as I said before, not everything is perfect. The
bureaucratic processes sometimes take forever, as the workers at the academic secretary often don’t know how to help you, or they can’t deal with all the work they have. Besides, we had some teachers who were very good professionals but really didn’t know how to teach properly. So not all the experiences I had there were very good ones. But I think that’s OK, as not everything can be perfect!

So even so, I rate my university with 5 stars because I believe they taught me a lot and I can tell it is a very good one. I feel lucky I had the chance to study Audiovisual Communication there. #jolapompeu

I studied Business Administration in UPF in Barcelona.

The way the career is designed allows the student to gain broad knowledge about all kind of topics that relate to business in general, but there is no option to gain lots of knowledge in one topic in particular. For the starting 3 years all classes are mandatory, which makes it hard to define one’s path in Business if they already chose what they want to pursue their career in (banking, human resources, etc.)

Teachers are quite good, even though sometimes they lack of teaching skills. I think the biggest mistake of UPF is to have teachers with 10 master’s degrees and and 15 careers but no teaching skills at all. The best teachers I had during the career where often the ones with less “academic awards”.

Besides that, there are a lot of resources available to students and the quality of the subjects is above average when compared to other universities in Barcelona that offer the same bachelor degree.

The best part of UPF is that they offer a lot of internships, that allow the student to learn different things and to have a first experience in the real world. Thus, combined with the fact that you are getting a degree in UPF, allows most of the students to have a quite good job once they graduate.
