The best semester of my life
CETT University was a great place to go for an Erasmus. I met a lot of different students from different nationalities here. I enjoyed my semester as I enjoyed living in Barcelona for 5-6 months. It was a great experience. The campus was huge. I like the cafeteria. It gets really cold in the classroom during winter and some professors don't like to open the heater. Some professors were a bit arrogant, some were nice. I had a lot of fun, especially with the course that I had because visiting the museums in Barcelona was part of my course for some subjects. If I could go back in time, I would still choose CETT University to be my option to go for a semester abroad.
I hopefully apply to make my future brite.
My study experience was inspiring and very well-organized. The guidance, resources, and support provided made learning enjoyable and meaningful. I feel more confident about my future goals now.
Solid university degree with professional teachers
University that offers great education in tourism and F&B. It's possible to specialize in tourism, hotel or digitalization. I chose digitalization to gain experience in communications, marketing and web design.
