Due to the existence of the Catalan language in Barcelona,sometimes it could be annoying because one couldn't understand it.However it actually was of benefit because hearing the catalan language allows one to be able to learn a new language quite similar to spanish and french.Overall my experience in learning spanish could not have been better.

“Molta oferta però no obligatòria”

Overall

La universitat ha estat una experiència molt enriquidora, sento que he après molt a nivell acadèmic però falta la part pràctica... en el meu cas, com vaig fer un Erasmus d'un any a Holanda, no vaig tenir la opció de fer pràctiques, i ara es quasi impossible entrar al mercat laboral...

Careers

Si que ofereixen estades de pràctiques, però no expliquen que no es compatible amb fer un Erasmus. Les pràctiques haurien de ser obligatòries, com ho són a infermeria o medicina.

Pros

Molta oferta d'intercanvis

Cons

Explicar que és necessari fer pràctiques si ens volem dedicar al sector
