if you want to speak, not so funi
Anonymous rated 4 out of 5 stars
my experience went quite well, but what didn't work was the commitment devoted to the English language that was too understimated, i would have liked to have fully tried my hand at languages
University of Udine is small but interesting
Anonymous rated 4 out of 5 stars
This university is very active and offers many good progrems though it is not located in a famous city. It offers many opportunities and has a few aggreements with other local institutions that make the career more interesting. It is a small university, so it is easier to deal with all the administrative aspects of university life or to get Erasmus+ opportunities.
Challenging and satisfactory experience overall
