Welcome to an excellent university in a vibrant city

Two Campuses of International Excellence

INTERNATIONAL DEGREES AND COURSES 2014/2015

Since it was founded in the year 1450, the University of Barce-lona has been a leading centre of education, science and cri-tical thought. The quality of its teaching and research, which have won recognition both inside and outside Spain, com-plements the UB’s commitment to serving the interests of local society and the country as a whole, and combines with a demonstrably dynamic, constructive and humanist character that permeates the daily activities of the institution.

Demand from prospective students consistently exceeds the offer of places, with more than 64,000 students enrolling each year at one of the UB’s six campuses. In the academic year 2013-2014, students were distributed across 66 bachelor’s degrees, 139 university master’s degrees, 73 doctoral program-mes, over 600 postgraduate courses and some 400 on-site and distance lifelong learning courses. A broad selection of courses is offered, covering the many disciplines that make up the principal branches of knowledge: humanities, health scien-ces, social sciences, experimental sciences and engineering.

The University of Barcelona offers prospective students a broad range of innovative course offerings tailored to their needs and to the needs of society in general, thus placing the University at the head of academic fields in all relevant degree areas, from natural and social sciences to arts and humanities.

The University of Barcelona gives high priority to those as- pects of student life which improve the studying experience and performance; it encourages members’ access to information and services of every type and supports members’ organization of and participation in cultural, sporting and advocacy initiati-ves of all kinds. The six campuses of the University of Barcelona are all located in the centre of Barcelona, one of the most vibrant and attractive cities in the world.
