“Excelente universidad.”

OverallLa calidad de la universidad es excelente en todos los aspectos. Tal vez no es lo mejor en instalaciones pero no es necesario porque se concentran en el conocimiento. Fantástica experiencia. Las bolsas de trabajo deja al final del curso deja algo que desear, pero los profesores ayudan mucho en ese momento crítico con la comunicación entre graduados y empresas.

Personal comments
If you really want to learn Italian you simply have to go to Italy. The people are very nice, helpful and thankful for every "grazie" and "Ciao". Don't be afraid of talking but never forget that Italians are very polite people - they would never correct you if you don't ask them to! The city of Florence pays for a language class (Via Morgani). The Italian spoken in and around Florence (toscano) is really nice and you'll soon pick up an accent.

Personal comments
"Andromeda" is a night club where foreigns don't pay to get in. The place isn't to good but it's the one stys open till late!!Is in the center near to Piazza la Signoria and Il Duomo. There's another cafe bar very nice to eat or have a drink called "La Torre" placed in the other side of the river Arno, just in front of the Ufizzi Gallery. To have a coffe, a very cool place is Astor placed in one side of Il Duomo going to Piaza San Marco.
