    “The degree in Automotive Mechanical Engineering is well structured and enhances contact with the reality of the sector. Throughout the degree, I developed technical knowledge, essential for my day-to-day life in a workshop that manages the maintenance of the Honda, Suzuki, and Chevrolet brands. I also highlight the strong proximity between students and teachers.”
