Student review [#15544] for Arts
at Universidad Complutense de Madrid - UCM

The Complutense University of Madrid is one of the best known within the community, especially for the number of degrees offered and the age of it, and therefore, each faculty and the degrees offered in them are of very diverse quality.

In general, my experience was positive since the quality of the teaching staff and the university with respect to the careers within the humanities branch is quite high. The subjects are very interesting and are in line with what is offered, it has a very wide offer of books and other teaching materials, in addition to a large number of libraries (at least one for each faculty).

The negative side responds more to the antiquity of the Complutense and how in many respects it becomes noticeable, the facilities remain practically the same and the computer work tools are also the same. In this, it lags far behind other universities.

On the positive side, I can highlight the curriculum of the teaching staff and the high quality of teaching, in addition to the autonomy they give the student, despite the burden that the Bologna plan has many times in this regard. The virtual classroom is also very intuitive and easy to use, in addition to also having a virtual library. In addition, it is practically in the center of Madrid, being one of the best located having excellent communication on public transport, having one of the best campuses in the community.

In short, despite being dated and lagging a bit behind other public universities in Madrid, I consider that my training at Complutense has been the best choice when it comes to pursuing a degree in letters.
