“Crecimiento personal”
Alex A
Spain, Undergraduate
Telecommunications, 2020
OverallEstudiar ingeniería de telecomunicaciones en la universidad politécnica de Catalunya me ha permitido crecer mucho como persona.
Es una carrera en la que tienes que darle mucha dedicación y constancia. Es importante superarte día a día e ir a más poco a poco.
Los profesores en la escuela son toda una eminencia y, como en todas las universidades hay mejores y peores, pero todos tienen la voluntad de ayudar que es lo importante.
En cuanto a la salida laboral, la universidad goza de un prestigio que te permite destacar dentro del mundo laboral. Por lo que dicha universidad nunca va a ser un obstáculo a la hora de considerarte para un puesto de trabajo.
