Personal comments

That was easy for important things at university. But in every day life, like shopping, i tried to use portuguese to learn the language faster.

Portugal, Graduate
Engineering, Mechanical, 2018
OverallIm my long 10 years on FEUP i was able to learn 5 fields of mechanical engenniring. The adjust of the arregment of the course on 2012 made the course much more dificult and exigent. Althought that i think that dificulty makes FEUP the number one school on Portugal for mechanical engenniring.
