Universidad Simón Bolívar Speciality : Architecture
programme: Architecture

Although the country’s situation may be challenging, what I appreciate most about the university is its ability to maintain the consistency and determination of both students and professors. Simón Bolívar University boasts a very friendly atmosphere, with expansive, beautiful, and relaxing gardens. The professors are deeply committed to teaching and to the development of each student.

Simón Bolívar University, in spite of the great crisis affecting the country and which has touched the doors of the university itself, has managed to overcome the difficulties and maintain its high educational standards as far as possible, thus continuing in its work of to train highly qualified professionals capable of successfully integrating into the workplace.

The quarterly regime and the strict rules of stay in the study house have contributed to the student’s constant search for excellence, regardless of the career they are in.

The campus is quite large and allows the development of the student’s life in recreational or sports activities beyond just the study.

Among the disadvantages that could be found would be the location of the campus, since it is located outside the capital city; to access it would have to be through the transport of the university (which at the moment is in a precarious situation due to bad government policies), by public transport (which also presents difficulties at this time), or through of a private vehicle.

Another notable disadvantage is that, as in most public universities, a large part of the teaching staff has decreased due to unfavorable labor and salary conditions.

The dining room service does not work in the same way as it used to in the past, so the students have to take their forecasts.
