Final comments
Padova is a great place to get to know Italian culture and learn the language. If you are looking for serious study experience (e.g.long hours over the projects and revising for exams), don't go to Italy. If you are once there then it depends on you - you can study hard and benefit not only from new language skills but also academic experience. Good luck!

Course recommendations
Make sure that you introduce yourself to the professor and discuss whether or not you will be able to handle the course requirements. Sometimes, they can make recommendations (or even alternative ways of completing the course) if it may be more challenging due to limited language skills.

Personal comments
I relaly liked the fact that all our classes were in Italian and that our teachers spoke no English, thus forcing us to speak in Italian. I had no problems communicating at all, and when I didn't know a word or needed to communicate a particular idea, I went looking for the dictionary!

Personal comments
There are very few nightclubs in Padova and the ones there are are not particularly good, however on the erasmus nights were always good, banale and Fishmarket namely. All the cafes and restaurants around the arts buildings were studenty and cheap. Best pizza in town: at medina.

Overall
I learnt warehouse’s management program such as MRP II, MPS, DRP, SAP (basic) at my university
and developed engineering knowledge like mathematics, mechanics, electrotechnology, thermodynamics and industrial facilities applications.
During all my studies I worked as private teacher for mathematics and Italians as foreign language. I love teaching because I like to have contact with people, I would say that I have a good empathy.
