Very good university
A lot to improve
Anonymous rated 3 out of 5 stars
The university infraestructure (both physical and online) could be vastly improved, and the organisms woork poorly. Other than that, I would say it is a pretty average university.
Less theory, more practice
Anonymous rated 3 out of 5 stars
Too theoretical, we need more practical subjects. There's no programming subjects.
