Many recognized companies worldwide have many professionals trained in the university institute as a company. Dr. Federico Rivero Palacios. Many professionals from different universities such as the Central University of Venezuela, Simon Bolivar University, Los Andes University and Carabobo University compete with the superior technicians and engineers of Dr. Federico Rivero Palacios can say that all these professionals have an almost equal level. The difference between a graduated from the central university of Venezuela or from the University of Carabobo and the university technology institute Dr. Federico Rivero Palacio that technically has more experience in the practical part due to its famous facilities such as pilot plants or mechanical workshop. The student of Dr. Federico Rivero Palacios is not only theoretically prepared, but the practical part is fundamental for the development of the graduate professional.

One of the best

I can consider that it is one of the best universities in Venezuela, good functioning of the facilities and excellent teachers. Incredible environment to develop and very good areas for students.

Vet

The Simón Rodríguez University had many shortcomings in terms of the study and organization to teach the degree in veterinary medicine, there were not even laboratories and the teaching staff was very infrequent due to the very low salary that the teachers received for their work, the university did not I was prepared to take on a career of that magnitude.

Not the best moment for this university

At this moment, this is not the best university to study on Venezuela, it doesn't have enough teachers for all the subjects, because of that, there are students teaching, they are not even graduated. Also they reduced the career from 5 to 4 years, that wasn't good because now we don't see some important subjects that help on the field of engineering. I don't recommend it at this moment.

My House of Studies

It's a good university, but in general this semester fell as there are always problems with pirate teachers ... Your system of notes via the internet is pathetic this semester ... Its price compared to other universities is really economic, that's what another good one that he has. And it should be noted that yes, there are still good teachers in the IUTA but unfortunately they will take other courses since their pay is very low.
