Libera Universita' di Bolzano

I really appreciated the relationship that was created between students and professors. Furthermore, most of the courses provided also guest lectures so one could have an impression on how things work in reality.

Great university, with great workshops. The small size makes it perfect to have direct and honest discussions and feedback from professors about projects. Too bad that 99% of projects, 99% of discussions and 99% of  teachings focus only on the conceptual disciplinary side of design, completely ignoring the dynamics and requirements of the real world.

The labour market expects a technical and methodological skillset that just isn't offered here. When graduating from unibz, you "maybe" have a strong mindset about how things should be done from a strictly conceptual approach, but have no pragmatic skillset, and no technical know-how. Specialized work in a company is off the table as you lack even the basics. Studio work is a shot in the dark, as portfolios weight much more than an academic degree, and in those scenarios the pay isn't enough to survive. If your goal is to work as a freelance, do you really need a degree?

Furthermore, for design & art, trilinguism is a malus, not a bonus. The didactics do not incorporate it during class, so languages turn into an "extra burden" that can prolong your stay at unibz by years, as you need to reach certain certifications in order to graduate and to enroll to exams. 

TLDR: if all you look for in a university is a pleasant experience, it's great while it lasts, but as soon as you graduate, it's as if you have very little to show for 3, often more years of university. If your goal is to actually work and make a living as a designer, you may want to look elsewhere.

The university offers an intimate atmosphere where to try out new ideas with a well equiped workshop facilities.

Südtirol is a place full of opportunities to grow and to develop your ideas living the way you want,  this is true, with some exemptions for people who were born here. Studying at UNIBZ could give you the opportunity to be that exempion, but I think there is still a lot of work to do for the university to find the right formula.
