“Máster interdisciplinar”
Nerea R
Spain, Graduate
European Studies, 2021
Overall
Solo puedo escribir acerca de el máster que he podido cursar, un plan de estudio novedoso y totalmente interdisciplinar, con profesores de diferentes ámbitos y adaptado a un grupo de estudiantes internacional, reducido y que igualmente provenía de diferentes titulaciones.
Reseñar que el profesorado se adaptó a las circunstancias de los alumnos, gracias a ser un grupo reducido de estudiantes.
En contra, la duración del programa es escaso (un año), ideal para estudiantes extranjeros pero puede resultar escaso para desarrollar el Trabajo de Fin de Máster.

“Acompañamiento escaso”
Pablo B
Spain, Undergraduate
International Relations, 2019
Overall
Mientras estudiaba la carrera, tenía muchas ganas de realizar prácticas profesionales pero no sabía muy bien por donde empezar a buscar. La OPE (Oficina de Prácticas y Empleo) iba subiendo algunas prácticas con muy pocas plazas e incluso algunas totalmente inalcanzables para estudiantes corrientes como yo, como eran por ejemplo unas en Naciones Unidas en Nueva York sin remuneración. Para realizar prácticas, tenías que buscar por tu cuenta para empezar justo en el período en el que podías establecer el convenio, y la verdad es que eché en falta bastante más acompañamiento.

I wish I had known...
The system is very much bureaucratic even at university, where they have a special office for exchange students. It takes a lot of effort, time and patient to get something arranged.

one has to be prepared for unexpected expenses. And in case of difficulties you are on your own, you have plenty of friends but especially in the beginning you can't turn to a good friend or family.

Try to use spanish travel agencies.Travelling around Madrid is very easy and cheap, with a lot of possibilities.
I found my appartment through a newspaper called segundamano (second hand) where there is a big offer for flats and appartments. It is very important to look for it before september, because the spanish students always do it in summer, and after it is almost imposible or very expensive. If you don´t have the possibility to come in summer, just do it by internet: www.segundamano.es (I did it so)

Take a public transport abonnement as quickly as you can-saves a lot of money. Do not pay more than 300.-euro rent a month. Try and travel round spain going to the cities for fallas a special fiesta, which is held throughout spain!
