Just a quick correction about universities -- the Universidad de Lambayeque in your photo is a new private university in the center of Chiclayo. The national university of the Lambayeque region is the Universidad Nacional Pedro Ruiz Gallo, in Lambayeque, which is also commonly known as the Universidad de Lambayeque.<br /><br />As to the quality of private universities here -- all are pretty awful, some are much better than others. None are comparable to universities in the States, as they have on average four buildings and under 10,000 books. It also bears mentioning that students generally have no or very few elective courses -- whichever major a student chooses upon entering has a set program of classes lasting five or six years.<br /><br />The national university has better resources and professors than do the private universities, but it's almost always on strike; at the moment they haven't had classes since September and noone has any idea when they'll open again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
