In the 5 year architecture course you will go through a lot. The teachers are prepared and will teach you things that even if in that moment don’t seem important or interesting will end up being very enriching personally and professionally. The university in itself is small but well prepared.
View moreStudying second-year Medicine at the Universitat Internacional de Catalunya (UIC) has been a truly enriching experience. From the very first day, I would highlight the great atmosphere among students: there are classmates from Barcelona as well as from many other cities, all very kind and always willing to help, which creates a friendly and collaborative environment.
The organization of the schedule is also remarkable. Theoretical classes take place in the afternoon, usually for about four hours, while practical sessions, held on some mornings, complement the learning experience. This structure allows students to have enough time to study and stay well organized.
The professors teach with great professionalism and clarity, and the students have also created a notes committee that provides quality study materials for most subjects, which is very useful for everyday learning.
Another very positive aspect is the mentorship program, which assigns each new student a mentor from a higher year. Thanks to this system, adapting to the university becomes much easier, as the mentor offers guidance, shares useful information, and helps new students integrate smoothly.
Finally, the campus facilities are excellent, especially for Medicine students. The university is equipped with modern materials and simulation mannequins, allowing students to gain hands-on experience from the very first years.
Overall, studying at UIC Sant Cugat combines solid education, a great atmosphere, and excellent academic resources.
Classes are good, I would try to make them more interactive and with more practices in class. Professors normally are good, in the english course I believe the english of the teachers could be better specially if the course is taught in that language. I also believe professors could interact more with their students and try to get in contact with students they see may be struggling. Otherwise the campus, although a bit small is fine, really nice, the library could be a little bigger.
