NJOVU - Fundador

Jaime Galán

Creo que el concepto de “aprender haciendo” es la mejor manera de aprender.

Estudiar Veterinaria y ser un UAXmaker te da grandes posibilidades. En la práctica es donde realmente desarrollas tus capacidades. Tener una base teórica es muy importante, pero realmente, la diferencia la marca ese componente práctico, que es el que te lleva a afrontar las situaciones reales que vas a poder aplicar en tu futuro profesional.

NJOVU se dedica a la protección animal y a la prevención del furtivismo, desarrollando proyectos educativos y de sensibilización en comunidades locales e impulsando proyectos de investigación científica.

Lo que mas destacaría de la UAX es que nos permite tener contacto entre nosotros, ya dentro del mismo sector o incluso otro.

Estudiar Veterinaria en la Universidad Alfonso X el Sabio ha sido una experiencia increíble. Desde el primer momento he podido poner en práctica todo lo que aprendí en clase. Lo que más valoro es la formación tan completa que recibimos, tanto a nivel teórico como práctico, y que el profesorado sea de calidad.  Además, la experiencia clínica tanto en el hospital veterinario de la facultad como en otros centros nos permite salir de la carrera mucho más preparados.

La carrera de Biomedicina en UAX me parece increíble, preciosa y muy bien diseñada.

Los laboratorios son una pasada, sobre todo el nuevo BIOLAB. Todos los profesores me gustan, me parece que tienen pasión por lo que enseñan, y notar su cercanía hace las cosas mucho más amenas. Además, las clases se graban y eso me ayuda muchísimo.
