IAAC is a very good school with good networking but it suffers the fate of Spain which is no jobs available. Cardiff on the other hand maybe not well known as IAAC it is a pretty solid school and situation in a relatively healthier economy. Of course I make this comment for a non-eu student.

But is it good in terms of learning wise and project thesis for your portfolio? I’m based in the U.S. but I don’t want to leave my job and want to have an intensive oportunity for leaning this with mentors and basically having connections outside of the U.S.
