Try to learn on your own.

I did not like so much the formation that the university has given me, but I have learnt a lot because I made a lot of work and I have joined proyects during the carreer, that is why I learnt a lot. I made a Erasmus to Italy, what has helped me to be more independient a confident on trying to have more experiences.

University of Extremadura

Good quality training, but from my point of view, the best about it is all the international agreements it have with other university world-wide.
