graduate of business administration

I studied 5 years in the Bicentennial University of Aragua and I have very good memories, it has a good educational level, the teachers fulfill their task of teaching the students without any kind of inconveniences. They teach their knowledge, their facilities are deficient, there is a small space where they sell Food but no dining room. has spacious green areas where students share in their free time, has a library, security is not good for vehicles, in my personal opinion should improve security and expand parking.
