Education, Quality and opportunity

Overall I think IUGB is a good university, an international one, so we have the opportunity to get in touch with people coming from different countries. During my times there, I really enjoyed being involved in the community. They have many clubs and activities. I enjoyed the courses too. The teachers were good and patient with students, especially in my department(MET). They work hard now to get each students, a chance to be part of the professional life by finding internship or contrats etc. The fees and tuition are a little bit high but I think for the work quality they show it’s a good bet. I would recommend IUGB for sure.
