Universitat Pompeu Fabra - UPF
speciality: Marketing

I’m Marta and I studied Marketing and Public Relations at the Pompeu Fabra University (UPF) in Barcelona, so I want to share my experience in case you’re thinking about studying here. Overall, I can say that it’s been a very enriching time, but like everything, it has its pros and cons. One of the things I value most about UPF is its academic approach. The professors are of a high level and most of them come with experience in the professional world, which brings a practical and realistic vision to the classes. In my case, the Marketing and Public Relations degree was very well structured, with subjects that covered everything from basic theory to more complex practical projects. In addition, the university has an incredible international atmosphere. I would recommend it 100%.

The University provides a high level of education, matched with good technologies and great premises. All the three campuses are located in the heart of Barcelona, making the university more accessible to the students. The teaching system favours practice over theory, which in my opinion allows a dynamic learning process. Moreover, the employment rate for UPF alumni is very high. On the other hand, something I would change about UPF is that it’s not a very international university, as the main teaching language is Catalan and only a very small part of the courses are taught in English. Overall, I really recommend UPF.

Great campus, very professional teachers and good equipment. The Communication campus has a big square which is great to study, sit with the colleagues or have some food. The rooms are well equiped but the wifi is horrible.
