Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona - Semester or Year Abroad

The Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB) is among the best academic centers in Spain and the European Union, both for the quality of its teaching staff and for its excellent research. The University currently offers 77 undergraduate courses, 90 doctoral programs, and 328 postgraduate and continuing education courses. The UAB has 43,000 students and over 4,200 members of staff.

 

Our study abroad program at UAB takes place at the Sant Pau (Casa Convalescència) and the Eixample Campuses. The Casa de Convalescència is one of the buildings located within the Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau grounds and constitutes one of the late works of Catalan Modernism. The complex was declared a Historic Artistic Monument in 1978 and later named part of UNESCO’s Cultural Heritage for Humanity in 1997. The Eixample Campus is located in the central part of Barcelona. It is very close to several Metro and bus stops. Our students may choose courses from either of these two campuses as the connection is easy and can be done in only 20 minutes.

 

Barcelona is a cosmopolitan, avant garde city in the northeast of Spain on the Mediterranean coast. It is famous for its artistic works and culture, and represents the spirit of the different Mediterranean peoples that have formed its present personality. Barcelona has many museums and architectural creations that will captivate its visitors. It is impossible to spend time in this city without being impressed by its cultural heritage, and leaving with a greater understanding of our globalized world. With an approximate population of 1,600,000 people Barcelona is the perfect place to spend a semester or an academic year as a student. It is a city where our students will get to know many other international students since the city is one of the most popular destinations for international students.
