Student & Alumni Comments
"Extremely good school! The alumni network is very useful and accessible even though I personally didn't use it to get a job in the end. There could always be more industry networking events, from the very beginning to ensure all students are presented with opportunities post graduation. "
"My school was a great place to study because everybody was very engaged, and because the location is far from the big cities, we didn't get distracted with other stuff. We focused mostly on our studies."
"Very good experience. Good workshops and a lot of freedom to explore within them. I would say there could be deeper technical teaching. At the same time, the school focuses on trying things out for ourselves. The student life is great."
"The school lacks international relationships and network. The teaching is very professional, but the opportunities for internships and jobs seems limited."
