Student review [#17143] for Translation and Interpreting
at Universidad Rey Juan Carlos - URJC

In my case, my degree has not been offered for a long time; certain faults that I see I attribute to that. For example, the offer of subjects does not cover as many possibilities nor does it touch as many areas as in other universities, nor do many come close to what would be the working life, having great deficiencies and great redundancies.
I hope this changes and adjusts.
I know that there have been professors who have tried to do so and since the University it has not been accepted.
As for the facilities, everything is fine.
The offer of schedules is very limited, I do not think that it tries to adapt to the real lives or to the possible diverse circumstances of those of us who study here.
There are a number of activities such as quite interesting talks, seminars and colloquia, just as acceptable, but insufficient for me with what a university should really be; there are even less extracurricular organizations, they could promote it, but it is not the sole responsibility of the URJC but also of those who study here and what we want, expect and demand from our student experience.
I do not think that this is a unique problem of this University but of the very concept of this that has been diluted over time.
As for the Rectorate, there have been many controversies in recent years. This does not give us any confidence and, personally, I think it gives the image that this University is a company at the service of people and groups outside it, and that study, knowledge and learning are really nothing more than a circumstance.
I don’t rate it as bad or very bad because, after all, it is possible to study there; the organization does not leave to be desired and in my experience, they are lucky to have quite good teachers. The problems I see are more basic to the University itself.
