Practical experience

I really like my university, how it works internally and the amazing contact network it has to offer to the students. While studying and doing courses to work and help with companies, with a methodology of learning by doing. Also the university has been very helpful when you are looking for internships or jobs. They're always giving information about this and looking for new companies to collaborate with when doing practical courses.
