There is a lot of petty theft in Madrid, so one must be careful. The nightlife is fun if you are able to stay out until the morning hours. The people are friendly and hospitable and it was an overall wonderful experience.

The university have provided a full and completed academic formation to gear up for the professional world. The working method of the university is based on being autonomous and efficient through daily task, groups proyects and periodic exams.

Careers
The university gave us formation and information about how to find interships and what skills we need to develop the most to improve our employability, but the research and work was all our responsibility. I personally find my intership through a famous job website in Spain and applying directly on the company websites like Deloitte, EY, KPMG, OHL etc.. I get and offer on Deloitte but i turned down for a better offer in marketplace company as an accountant.
