English Philology faculty

My review concerns the Institute of English Philology. I really recommend it to everyone who is considering a degree in this field, as the lecturers are amazing people, very helpful and professional. Whatever you will need help with, they always try their best to give you a heloing hand. The institute building is close to the city centre, so everything you may need is easily accesible, public transportation in the area works perfectly.

Great localization

UP is placed close to the city center which makes it accessible and handy in terms of comunication. Great infrastructure around. During the brakes you have a variety of activities to do such as going to gym or a liblary.

Could be better, but still okay

My professors are probably the best part of my academic journey. Most of them are funny, friendly and understanding. If you dream of undemanding curriculum, this is the place to go. I recommend this uni for people who want to take it easy.
