    A good university, and a good faculty

    My experience was perfect, especially in terms of organization, as the law school has a perfect and incredible organization.
    As with everything, there are always teachers who don’t explain well, who don’t dedicate enough time, or who like to create a power dynamic between students and teachers. But alongside these experiences, there are also wonderful people who love teaching and whose passion is evident.
    Although the facilities are a bit old, they work well and rarely malfunction, and the cafeteria, as is well known, is one of the best.

    I like the university because it has amazing teachers willing to help you, it has many amazing programs for you to participate in and a cafeteria with a little bit of everything. It has its own sistem which can be a bit confusing but with time you will get used to it.

    UMA for the win

    I studied Computer Engineering at the University of Málaga, and overall I have positive memories of my time there. The degree was challenging, with some particularly interesting subjects related to programming and databases. As with any university, some professors were more dedicated than others, but the overall academic level was solid and encouraged independent learning. I also enjoyed the atmosphere among classmates, and looking back, I think it was a worthwhile experience

    Good atmosphere, but mixed teaching quality.

    I spent four to five years at UMA, and although I left a few years ago without finishing my degree, I wanted to share an honest perspective.
    The Good:
    The overall environment was very respectful. For the most part, students, professors, and staff were always willing to help.
    There were plenty of facilities to study using electronic devices. The cafeteria deserves a special mention: it was always clean, the food was delicious, and the prices were very affordable.
    The university promotes culture and inclusion quite well. In my time, we had a lot of Korean exchange students and even a “Korea Corner,” which deeply fostered cooperation and cultural exchange.
    The Bad:
    There was a total lack of active campus life. There were no real incentives or extracurricular activities to encourage students to hang out after class. Collaboration between different faculties was almost non-existent.
    While many professors were understanding, some had absurd demands. I had to endure professors making us stay double the time in class (forcing us to attend other groups’ hours) simply because students didn’t openly protest.
    My experience during the pandemic was particularly frustrating. Due to a very poor internet connection, I struggled to attend online classes. Despite proving my technical difficulties to a faculty member, the university failed to mediate. Some strict professors even suggested I travel for an in-person exam during full lockdown instead of offering alternatives like essays. Due to these misunderstandings and rigid rules, I failed several subjects, which eventually led to my decision to drop out.
    Conclusion:
    Would I recommend it? Yes, overall I do. However, keep in mind that it is not the most accommodating university when it comes to flexibility.
