In the year 2009, the UJI was awarded the EuropeanGold Seal o Excellence 500+, or Five Stars, ater beingassessed in 2008 by the Management ExcellenceClub in accordance with the model established bythe European Foundation o Quality Management(EFQM). This award, which was the frst to be obtainedby a Spanish university since the signing o theagreement between the National Agency or QualityAssessment and Accreditation (ANECA, Spain) and the

Management Excellence Club, places the UJI on thecutting edge o quality management.

The UJI has implemented a Quality ManagementSystem that ensures compliance with therequirements set out in the international UNEENISO 9001:2000 standard. In addition, the UniversitatJaume I library was one o the frst at any Spanishpublic university to obtain the library certifcatein compliance with the ISO 9001:2000 standard. Itwas also the frst Spanish public library to receivecertifcation rom AENOR, the Spanish Association orStandardisation and Certifcation. Likewise, the UJIwas the frst Spanish university to be awarded theAENOR certifcate or a Sports Service.

The Universitat Jaume I strives to ensure that thisquality management is implemented in each o the felds o action it is involved in.

OFFICIAL LANGUAGES

The Universitat Jaume I is located in Castelló, one o the provinces that make up the Valencian Community,a region with two ocial languages – Valencian

(academically known as Catalan) and Spanish.

The Universitat Jaume I uses Catalan as its ‘mothertongue’, and this is the language used on aninstitutional and administrative level. Both Catalanand Spanish are used in teaching and academics andstudents are ree to choose which language they wantto express themselves in. The extent to which eachlanguage is used varies rom course to course, butoverall around 21% o classes in the undergraduatestudies, 13% o the Master classes and 9% o theclasses in the PhD programmes are in Catalan. TheUJI oers Spanish and Catalan language classes ororeign students through the SelAccess Language

Centre (CAL). Because many o our students are romoverseas and members o the teaching sta andproessionals oten come rom outside the ValencianCommunity and Spain, lectures in the master’s coursesare usually given in Spanish. Nevertheless, bothlanguages coexist quite happily and are studied andspoken by the majority o inhabitants o the town o Castelló.
