Quality education and future job prospects

It depends on your degree of choice but overall good quality education and great job prospects. The campus is very big but isolated. The facilities are a bit lacking, some of the buildings are old, sport facilities are non-existent and food services are not sufficient for all the students. Security is good, inside the campus and in the access to the dorms, which are very close but outside the campus. Public transport is ok, there is a tram station for the university and several bus stops. The beach is just a short bus ride away. Free parking in the campus with plenty of spaces
