Your classmates
- Alidia Sweden: "What I like best about ESET are the trips we take. Being able to study architecture and travel at the same time is just the best! You really learn something because you can see it all with your own eyes. And I really love my classmates. They’re people from different countries and it’s really interesting to get to know them and discover new things about their cultures and traditions."
- Sara Norway: "I was looking for an international university where I could both learn and explore new places, so CEU Valencia has been the perfect choice for me."
- Walat Sweden: "In Sweden, there’s one palette for architecture, one style, one way of doing things, but here in Spain you have much more creative freedom, with a greater variety of architectural styles. That’s really exciting for me, as it encourages me to be more creative."
- Simon South Korea: "I found out about the university through my sister, who’s studying Physiotherapy here at CEU UCH. I also thought about going to Florence and Barcelona, but in the end I decided to come to Valencia. I think it’s to do with its size. It’s more manageable. And Valencia’s a quiet and pleasant place to live."
