Student’s Feedback:

    • Courses Feedback:
      I took 3 courses, including a studio. I recommend the “Drawing of Science” course, which is part of the fashion design track. It offers a high level of skill in drawing and understanding proportion. The level of studies depends on how much the student invests, as the degree here is for a master’s, not a bachelor’s, meaning much of the learning is self-guided.
    • Campus Life, Activities, Culture, etc.:
      The architecture faculty is not located on the main campus.
    • General Feedback:
      This is a one-time opportunity that is important to experience. Feel free to contact me.

    • Courses Feedback:
      I took 6 courses (including a language course). The academic level was relatively low compared to the Technion, and I wouldn’t recommend this university for studies.
    • Campus Life, Activities, Culture, etc.:
      There are several weekly organized activities for international students, including social evenings, tours, parties, and trips.
    • General Feedback:
      Feel free to contact me. The experience was amazing socially and culturally, but not academically enriching, especially compared to the Technion’s level.

      I recommend the advanced studio in the landscape architecture track, as the academic level is noticeably lower than at the Technion.
    • Campus Life, Activities, Culture, etc.:
      The studies take place in a building in the city center, not on the main campus, so campus social life wasn’t very noticeable. However, there are many platforms, like WhatsApp groups, where students organize activities.
    • General Feedback:
      Feel free to contact me. My message is that at Sapienza, the studies are secondary to the overall experience of the city and country, as the courses are not very engaging or innovative.

  • Courses Feedback:
    The studio course I took was successful. The elective course was less successful, but relatively decent. The academic level of the courses is lower compared to the Technion.
  • Campus Life, Activities, Culture, etc.:
    I didn’t notice much campus social life, but there were many events in the city. I didn’t participate in most of these because they didn’t interest me. We connected with people through courses and planned things on our own.
  • General Feedback:
    Feel free to contact me. My message is to enjoy the experience, travel, and learn a lot from the city where you live. I learned a lot about urban planning and had very meaningful experiences.
