Personal recommendation
In terms of academic level Universitat de Girona is said to be among the best in Spain, it offers a big choice of interesting courses. Teachers run classes in quite an interactive way - share their broad knowledge with students, but also let them present their points of view, the distance between teachers and students is smaller - more friendly relations, all the necessary materials are available at the university (libraries). School buildings are equipped well, there are many computer rooms in every building, so students have constant access to Internet. There is a wide range of sport activities students can enroll to. The International Relations Office takes care of foreign students and helps them to solve every problem, there are some student organizations, which make it easier for strangers to integrate with local students.

Final comments
If you're a holder of Euro<26, or cards of this kind, you can get a discount in many places - for instance travelling by train, bus or entering museums, which a student card doesn't give you. Instead of taking bus to/from school, you can borrow a bike at the university. To improve your language skills and get to know interesting people you can join a special program which consists in regular conversations with a local student, who probably would like to improve his/her English or other language.

“Una buena experiencia a pesar de la pandemia.”

Overall
La Universidad de Girona (UDG) tiene una amplia gama de cursos. A partir de 3ro de carrera, puedes especializarte en lo que más te gusta del mundo de la Publicidad y las Relaciones Públicas. Los profesores están bien cualificados y siempre están predispuestos a ayudar. La bolsa de empleo para encontrar prácticas curriculares o extracurriculares es útil y funciona con gran rapidez.

Todo se mueve a través de una plataforma. Igual que cuando aplicaras para irte de ERASMUS. En mi opinión, funciona bastante bien.

“Nice and close university”
Maria P

Overall
This university is not a really big one. It has different faculties, in my case, I am studying at the Sciences Faculty. Over there there are classes for lectures as well as laboratoires for all our practical sessions. I consider it is a really good university because we start practical sessions since the first year of studies and the groups are very reduced (around 10-15 people) so it is super easy to learn and interact with the teacher. We work doing both: projects and exams, usually we do not have only a final exam, we also have mid-term exams but it depends on the subject. As I have already said it is very easy to talk with the teachers.

Pros
Students can be close to teachers. Lectures and practical sessions with low amount of students.
Cons

“La oportunidad que siempre esperé”
Anderson R
Spain,
Political Science, 2023
Overall
Hubo todo tipo de profesores, en particular, me quedo con 3 cuyas cátedras cambiaron mi vida. La infraestructura de la sede podría mejorar y el sistema podría estar mucho más orientado al mundo laboral. Por lo que comporta el resto, fue una experiencia única que nunca olvidaré y que recuerdo con mayor afecto.

Personal comments
Rooms in residence hall cost a lot, it's twice that cheaper to rent a flat with other students. It's possible to borrow a bike at the university- a very good way to save on transpot, there are many supermarkets, where prices are quite low, in local newspapers you can find plenty of advertisements offering second-hand items. You can buy tickets for parties or discos at the university in advance - it's much cheaper. The International Relations Office organizes a lot of trips and cultural events, it's always cheaper to take part, than to go on your own.
