Are you thinking of applying to this university?
Before you do, it's a good idea to go to an open day. You can have a good look around campus, getting a better idea of what it's like to study there. You'll meet current students and staff and get the chance to ask them questions.
Universities will list upcoming open days on their websites. Most will also have virtual open days; these are a great alternative if you really can't get there in person. For tips on preparing for open days, check the advice section here on The Uni Guide.

Good course with good outcomes. Not a lot of information provided from UPF (University in Barcelona where you spend the last two years of the course), but overall it is interesting.

The timetable is good, it gives enough time for independent studying and has a good range of in person and online. The module content is good it is detailed but not too heavy content. When it comes to lectures or seminars it varies what modules you take as some modules can be boring and not engaging...
