Celine de Barros – Bachelor of Nursing

“The Nursing degree has taught me not only to be a good professional who cares for others, but also a great deal on a personal level: how to work in a team, to love others unconditionally and, above all, to be more human. The UdA has been a great university for all of us – a place where we have been able to train, where classmates have become friends and friends have become family, after three years of studying together, many sleepless nights, countless exams… We will miss the close bond we formed, always supporting and helping one another.”

Meritxell Silvestre – Advanced Professional Diploma in Accounting and Management

“I encourage everyone, regardless of age, to study the DPA or any bachelor’s degree at the University of Andorra, as it is a very welcoming, friendly, and highly personalised university.”

Maria Magdalena Fernandes – Bachelor of Business Administration

“What I’ve enjoyed most about studying at the UdA is everything we’ve learned over the years, the teaching staff, and the friends I’ve made.”

Helena Charrua – Bachelor of Teaching and Learning

“What I’ve enjoyed the most has been meeting new people and the journey we’ve been on. We’ve learned so much, and thanks to the teaching staff and my classmates, I’ve been able to make real progress. I’m very proud of the path I’ve taken.”

Beatrice Veres – Bachelor of Computer Science

“What stands out for me is the personalised attention we’ve received from the teaching staff, the camaraderie, and all the classmates we’re taking with us.”

Sandra Fernandes – Bachelor of Teaching and Learning

“What I value most is the camaraderie and the closeness with the teaching staff. I believe it’s a very welcoming university, which is a great advantage for those who want to make lasting friendships and for fostering strong cohesion within the class.”

Elies Retamosa – Bachelor of Computer Science

“What I would highlight from my time at the University is both the people and the facilities. We’ve had access to great laboratories and good spaces to work, as well as a teaching staff that truly cares about the students: the lecturers provide a lot of support to help you overcome the challenges of the degree. Regarding the Bachelor’s in Computer Science, I recommend it not only because of the professional opportunities it offers, but also because it’s a lot of fun and covers many different technologies. In fact, it’s the lecturers themselves who encourage you to work with the most cutting-edge technologies and make a real effort to help you do so.”

Marcos Amorim – Bachelor of Computer Science

“I would especially highlight the companionship. Since the teams are very small, the truth is that we have really pulled together and I have made some very good friends who have helped me enormously throughout the progress of this three-year degree. Moreover, having such a small group helps during tutorials, as the lecturers provide very personalised support to each student, which makes it very unlikely for anyone to fall behind, as we always work closely together, move forward as one, and if someone is struggling, they receive much more help. Without a doubt, the career prospects in computer science are almost limitless, as it is a very much in-demand profession nowadays. I can assure you that you will come out of here, if not with a job, then with a very secure professional pathway. Furthermore, the knowledge we gain and the technologies we learn, even if perhaps not approached in a very specialised manner, allow us to enter this world in a very cutting-edge way.”

Asier Del Rosal – Bachelor of Computer Science

“I would mainly highlight the team we have and the opportunity to be in a course with very few people, as this means the way the lecturers teach you is much more personalised, which is a great advantage. The Computer Science bachelor’s degree has provided all of us with professional opportunities—not just at the end, but already halfway through the degree many of us find jobs in the country. Furthermore, the content is of high quality; we learn the latest technologies, the lecturers ensure this, and honestly, it has been a very positive experience.”

Marta Bover – Bachelor of Nursing

“Since it is a small university, this allows us to have a closer relationship with all the lecturers and for everyone to get to know each other. And, in the end, if you ever have a problem in the future, they are always willing to help. From my time at the UdA, I would highlight the opportunity given to all Nursing students to go abroad for placements, whether to Spain, France, Portugal, or Monaco. And, of course, a certain level of competence is always expected from us, which means we give our best and, in the future, it opens doors for us.”

Maria Lluïsa Marin – Bachelor of Business Administration

“Since it is a small university, this allows us to have a closer relationship with all the lecturers and for everyone to get to know each other. And, in the end, if you ever have a problem in the future, they are always willing to help. From my time at the UdA, I would highlight the opportunity given to all Nursing students to go abroad for placements, whether to Spain, France, Portugal, or Monaco. And, of course, a certain level of competence is always expected from us, which means we give our best and, in the future, it opens doors for us.”

Marc Ferreiro – Bachelor of Business Administration

“What I value most about the University of Andorra is its quality of teaching, the public spaces, and the personalised attention. In fact, the main advantage is this personalised support, which means that if I had to choose a university again, I would choose the UdA once more to pursue my studies. The Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration allows you to acquire various skills, such as accounting, auditing, taxation, and mathematics… But it’s not all about numbers; there are also subjects like commercial management, international trade, and other tools that can support your professional growth.”

Class of 2019

Some of the students who graduated in 2019 assess their time at the University of Andorra and tell us about the experiences throughout their years of education.

Carlos Pereira – Bachelor of Business Administration

“I recommend the University of Andorra because the fact that the classes are small with not so many students makes everything really friendly; the teachers are very approachable and you have plenty of opportunities to learn things in different ways.  I also like the combination between theory and practice, as there’s lots of practical work with computers, and that’s good”.

“I’m already working and what’s helped me a lot from the bachelor’s degree are the practical classes with the computer, especially those on Excel. For me it’s essential for the work I’m doing and it’s helped me a lot”.

Stephanie Marasigan – Bachelor of Nursing

“From my time at the UdA I’d underline the experience it’s given us; in Nursing we don’t do the internships just in Andorra, as they also give us the chance to do them in other centres in Spain and France, and I even have classmates who’ve been able to do them in Monaco. I appreciate the personalised treatment the teaching staff offer; they’re really supportive and if you have any queries they’ll help you out with anything”.

“As there aren’t many of us, there’s a lot more connection among the classmates. In other places I’ve seen lots of competition and here it’s not the case; on the contrary, there’s a great deal of cohesion and we really help each other”.

Meritxell Rocha – Bachelor of Nursing

“The Bachelor of Nursing is an outstanding course. If you like caring for and looking after people, it’s the best thing you can do”.

“From my time at the UdA I’d like to emphasise the high standard required, which brought the best out of us and will help us to be better professionals. And the kindness of the teachers; they’ve been really nice people and when we’ve had a personal problem they’ve been there to give us their support, which also means the course isn’t so tough”.

Katia Castro – Bachelor of Business Administration

“I came from Ecuador and in the first year, not having any Catalan, I enjoyed special treatment and was able to do the classes in Spanish. Then, in the second and third years, I did everything in Catalan, but I think this is a great benefit for students who come from abroad”.

“What I like about the Bachelor of Business Administration is that it’s made up of several parts; each of them is associated with a different work area, such as accounting, management or financial management. In this way you can take in a bit of everything and you have lots of career opportunities”.

Bruno Gouveia – Bachelor of Business Administration

“I like the University of Andorra because it’s very small and that means we’re like a little family. For this reason you can always rely on the teachers to give you a hand. The important thing is that we’re not just numbers, as can happen at larger universities such as Barcelona or Salamanca”.

Aida Gómez – Bachelor of Teaching and Learning

“What I liked most is that the instructors are so approachable, they help you a lot in both the personal and academic fields. They give you a lot of support throughout the degree and they guide you and encourage you to continue if you encounter any setbacks”.

“The Teaching and Learning degree is lots of fun; in the first year we begin making short appearances at schools, doing small plays and activities for the children (from the youngest ones to the oldest ones), and this encourages you to continue and want to be a teacher”.

Brandon Dias – Bachelor of Teaching and Learning

“I recommend the Bachelor of Teaching and Learning because it really opens the door to a totally unknown world. When we think about school and teachers, we don’t consider that behind things there’s a theory and very specific methodologies to be followed to teach future citizens to create a better world, which is what we want to achieve”.

“As it’s a very small university, it leads to a very good student-lecturer relationship, which means we can learn while having fun with them”.

Maria del Carmen Cardoso – Bachelor of Teaching and Learning

“What I liked most is that from the first year onwards I had the opportunity to relate to the children, going to a classroom, having to prepare the class and setting the pace. This helps you to work out if you really like the profession and how you can improve, and I find that very important”.

“As it’s a small university, you have the chance to have greater contact with the instructors and personalised attention. If you have any queries you can go to their office, while some of them even give you their phone number and you can call them, not just for classroom issues but also for help with personal matters”.

 Carles Ferri – Bachelor of Computer Science

“At other universities, having a tutorial with the instructor is like asking the doctor for an appointment, while here, on the other hand, the relationship between students and instructors is really friendly, and you have them at your disposal at any time”.

“As there aren’t many of us in the classroom, the classes are very personalised; all the syllabus is covered but the instructor goes at the pace set by the students. If we want to spend more time on a specific subject, there’s lots of flexibility.

Dídac Invernon – Bachelor of Computer Science

“The University of Andorra gives you the chance to do university-level studies online, enabling you to combine your work and studies”.

“The Computer Science degree has been like a refresher course, enabling me to update myself with the area of computing, which is a field that evolves very quickly”.
