Personal comments
Al principle is a little dificil to relate and communicate with persons that live in a different culture to yours, in my case the Spain culture, a new social environment and a new academin system. But after some time I began to understand the new "norms" of contact and to value a great deal more the new conceptions that this new culture can contribute to my life and also in professional career.

Overall
Una de las mejores cosas que tiene la UPV es la ayuda que brinda a los estudiantes y recién graduados a conseguir empleo. Se realizan gran cantidad de cursos durante todo el año que ayudan a los estudiantes a prepararse para salir al mercado laboral, y cuando acabamos la carrera nos ofrecen una bolsa de empleo y bastante asesoramiento sobre cómo encontar el empleo que deseamos.

Course recommendations
You should definitely know some Spanish before you go, because almost all of the classes are given in Spanish only.

Personal comments
Make sure you settle all the organizational matters (i.e. evaluation of what you do in Valencia at your home university) before you go. It will be hard to explain to the Spanish profs what kind of certificates you need back home, so talk to them as soon as possible about that.

I am grateful to have seen two different types of education. Ireland education is more practical, they want you to learn by your own, they don't teach you something they want you to discover it.
