Student Reviews

Dream breaker
Anonymous rated 2 out of 5 stars

The university does not have enough structures for the classes we have, for example, we do not have fields for sports and we are in a course that we need such

University of Madeira - A small but good uni
Provided by ESN rated 4 out of 5 stars

The university is small but for the most part has good facilities. The classes don´t have many students so there is better communication with the teachers.

Keep Developing Yourself
Anonymous rated 4 out of 5 stars

I really enjoyed studying at that university, for the fact that I also had international professors and for all the knowledge I absorbed.
