ELISAVA — Attraction in Barcelona

A counter-productive, one-sided approach to theory and the production of student work, and a draconian price tag for lacking, highly experimental education. Elisava is not at all what I expected it to be, seemingly going out of its way to make studying there much more difficult and expensive. On top of that, the people meant to help you figure out alternatives simply vanish mid-procedure. Zero follow-up. No assessment matrix despite asking many times, and the feedback given references completely random competencies.

Rules preventing students from producing their final work on location, rules that prohibit the use of “too much” paper during projects, rules regarding attendance of classes that kept changing throughout the first 3 months of my studies there. Finally, a lack of enthusiasm in introducing the students to the various facilities the university has to offer on the account of those being “very busy”. Completely unacceptable for that price.

I cannot wrap my head around an educational institution, with various production facilities as a selling point, sending people to outside production services around the city to produce their final work, just because of a misguided belief toward the use of paper and other materials on location.

Not at all worth entertaining this very confusing institution.

I have a lot of respect for my masters course, especially considering the amount of work that went into the making of it. Sadly it didn't work with the knowledge and approaches gathered during my bachelor. The university needs to recognize that the current limitations does not give the students what...

Please before studying here check if the course you are taking is legit. I went all my way from USA to Barcelona to do a “ Masters” and after I got there I found out that is not an official masters. I dont know how they are allowed to market something as a Masters Program and it can’t be credited outside of their country. They never mention that to you or any info about it if you dont ask for it. Wont refund and not even feel bad for it. You pay a lot of money for it and the classes are very unprofessional, they dont know what they are doing and sometimes you go to class and there is no class because there is not enough students. Please avoid...

Estudie hace 3 años un Máster en esta universidad, la verdad me arrepiento, y si aprendi, se nota que se gastan dinero en ponentes y demas, pero yo antes de realizar este curso fui a informarme, sobretodo sobre que tipo de practicas y con que empresas colaboran, que me parece de lo más importante para coger practica y tener una experiencia en el curriculum, me dieron muchísimos nombres de empresas, y resulto que cuando estuve cursando me metieron en una empresa que ni si quiera se dedicaba al branding, tan solo tenia un departamento de dos personas y había semanas en las que no entraba trabajo y no hacia nada, no aprendi absolutamente nada en ellas. Eramos 12 en clase y tan solo 2 personas pudimos hacerlas ya que no encontraban más empresas para meter a gente. Me decepciono bastante ya que al ser un máster tan caro digo yo que podia colaborar con empresas de alto estatus y que nos enseñaran pero no. Por otro lado se nota que por ahi corre mucho dinero, porque la ponen como la mejor de España y si que es buena pero no vale lo que vale, se nota que aceptan a todo el mundo, dicen que hacen prueba de nivel y no, con el simple hecho de pagar y tener una carrera ya entras, a mi me toco una compañera para hacer los trabajos que no tenia absolutamente ni idea de nada, y la que acabe pagandolo fui yo y ellos cobrando (que ironia jaja)

Me arrepiento tanto de haber hecho ese Máster, no me a servido para absolutamente nada en el curriculum, solo de adorno, si alguien quiere hacer algo de diseño en Barcelona, que mire la escuela "Brothers", me han hablado muy bien de ella, y un master cuesta la cuarta parte que uno de Elissava.
