Be careful when choosing your courses! Take some time to study for the final exams, I had two hard weeks at the end because of that.

BCN is the best place to do your exchange program, I had the time of my life there and it was freaking awesome, I would do it again and again! It is the most amazing city.

En general un notable

Overall
Mi experiencia en la UPF fue satisfactoria. No obstante, a mi parecer, el sistema de evaluación continua no sirve de nada si luego hay que aprobar el examen final. ¿De qué sirve hacer mil trabajos y tener mil entregas durante el curso, si luego sacas un 4,5 en el examen final y no apruebas la asignatura?
También destacar que esta universidad funciona por trimestres, lo que significa que se acaba después de San Juan y se acumula la faena.

Excelente Universidad pública
Ignacio R
Spain, Undergraduate
Business Studies, International Business Economics, 2016
Overall
Profesores de muy buena calidad, con unos conocimientos económicos excelentes. Sin embargo, dicha calidad no es uniforme, y se nota.

Algunas de las materias (sobretodo en tercer año) repiten temario con clases que ya se han dado, lo cual llega a ser un poco frustrante.

Excelentes intercambios universitarios, con posibilidades de irte a universidades de gran prestigio en cualquier parte del mundo.

Pros
Profesores, compañeros de clase, intercambios universitarios
Cons
Temario repetido, horarios cambiantes cada trimestre, clases a veces demasiado teóricas

Demanding Univerisity
Júlia S
Spain, Undergraduate
Business Studies, 2019
Overall
The Universitat Pompeu Fabra is a very demanding university. Especially during the first 2-3 years, where you have to take the compulsory courses, the level is very high. I could feel students are very well-prepared and consequently there is high competition in the class. However, this makes you be more prepared, providing with great job opportunities after graduation.
I feel the majority of the teachers were highly qualified researches, but some lacked teaching skills. 
Finally, although the campus is small it has everything necessary (bar, stationery shop, copy center...) and what I liked the most, it is located in the city center!

Pros
