ie university is the best university in the world, they education system is the best and infrastructure. It's the best university to put your child to I'm very happy with it i dont wanna lie l. Please go for it
Excellent university, with experienced professors, professionals in the areas they teach and with an incomparable teacher-student proximity.It is a very good university for International students since thet offer Portuguese classes and some subjects are in English. In terms of infrastructure, despite being small and not having all the conditions and equipment, it brings together a pleasant environment for studying - in addition to very good cleaning conditions and modern rooms. At the administrative level, it is organized. As for the students, many are very interested in being there, excellent students and enormous dedication.
The life in Murcia is simply great! A lot of tapas bars, bars, clubs etc. which are affordable for students! During the courses at UCAM, I got to know so many international people who got really good friends in the meanwhile. The only shortcoming is that several professors have difficulties to explain their ideas in English, because of the language barrier. But this does not concern every teacher. Furthermore, the teaching staff is not only about professors but about people having their own business and talking about their own experiences. All in all the education is pretty good at UCAM. But the working-life balance is even better. "Savoir-Vivre!"

First, since I asked for information for the ELE Master, I had the advisor constantly pressuring me to decide, to enroll, to PAY, to sign... she would not leave me alone for a day. Up to that point, I didn't like it, but I thought, well, it was their way of selling, 1st red flag. 2nd red flag: When signing the registration on the platform, they asked me if I agreed with the conditions, but the conditions did not appear anywhere, to which I told the advisor that I could not sign a document where they asked me if I agree to the conditions that are not explained to me. She responded by saying that there was "nothing strange", and that the conditions were that I was going to study at the university, and I was surprised that a supposedly serious institution believes that one must accept the conditions that they tell you orally, is it Seriously?, 3rd red flag. However, I wanted to continue trusting (silly me) and I signed. However, I told advisor Pilar Fuentes that, as a suggestion, the conditions should be explicitly described in that document, to which she did not respond anything, nor to my question about what the next step was. Two days passed and still no response. I asked him again what the next step was and three days later he responded: "Hello, how can I help you?" As if he didn't know me, I repeated the question again, which remained unanswered for two more days, that is, 5 in total. (4th red flag), clearly showing that this university only cares about PROFIT. Once they take money from you, they forget. During those days, another person already sent me the "20 installments" in which I had to pay, which surprised me again because no one asked me how I was going to pay. When I asked this person about it, he told me I had SIGNED for 20 installments... (5th red flag). What other surprise were they going to come up with that I had signed? But of course, it was my mistake to accept what the advisor told me. When I wrote to this advisor again to tell her that she couldn't believe that she still hadn't answered me after 5 days and that she wasn't going to give another cent to this university, she just reacted with a not very credible excuse. I demanded the return of MY money (290 USD) and despite the fact that I explained to them in the discharge department that I had completely lost confidence in the institution due to lack of professionalism and transparency, and despite the fact that I offered to give them details of what happened, little They didn't care and told me they wouldn't give me ANYTHING back. In other words, I confirmed the advisor's attitude, but that this is a problem not only for her, but also for an institutional problem. The least you expect when you complain about a terrible service is that the person providing said service is a little embarrassed and at least returns the money that is not theirs. But hey, let it benefit them. As for me, I will tell all my colleagues about this terrible experience so that they can look for a university that is worth it. And I hope my review helps others not to fall into the trap.
I really enjoyed my time at LCB! I've found that my skills when I entered the work force were much higher than others. I think though there was a big portion missing in recipe development and composition. True- we did learn it through memorizing the recipes, but we really were missing classes on how different ingredients affect the final textures.. how you can change them... etc. That I still am not an expert in .. and I create recipes! Ouf! Also, I don't know if you still do a month of sugar work... but that really wasn't necessary and should be either cut or minimized to just 2 lessons. It's such a niche skill to know that I would have really preferred more technical skills. I loved the old location. The "rumors" I'm getting about the new location are that it's not as good, unfortunately - that i's become more of a money focused/marketing machine. I really hope that this image can be fixed as I love LCB and enjoyed my time there! Oh also - there should be more help for students to get jobs and featuring old students accomplishments - from cookbook launches to new bakeries so that current and old students can support them.
