As far as European cities go, they don’t come much more vibrant and diverse as Barcelona. Which is what makes it such a fantastic and appealing place for foreign students. If the idea of studying in Barcelona sounds appealing, you might want to consider the Universitat Autonomo de Barcelona<\/a><\/strong> (UAB<\/strong>), one of Barcelona’s largest public universities<\/strong>.\"logo-uab\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Why the UAB? For starters the UAB is a leading institution, ranking 10th in the world<\/strong> according to the 2014 QS world university rankings. It has a very good reputation for its teaching and research. The UAB currently enrols over 50,000 students every year<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The UAB offers an extensive range of study and research options covering the Humanities, Social Sciences, Health Sciences, Experimental Sciences, Technology <\/strong>and Engineering<\/strong>.

International students are welcomed and very well catered for at the UAB<\/strong>, with a wide range of programs specially designed for international students wishing to study subjects in Spanish or English. This includes Study Abroad programs<\/strong> in Regular Studies<\/strong> (joining the regular coursed offered at the main campus), Tailor Made Programs with a group of fellow students, and a 15-week Pre-Established Study Abroad Programs in which you can study Spanish and a choice of between two and five subjects taught in English (individually or in a group).<\/p>\n

All programs are private and students<\/a> must pay tuition fees, information of which you will find on the program pages of the UAB<\/strong> website. There are typically two academic terms running from late September to mid February (term one) and mid February to mid June (term two).<\/p>\n

In addition to its Study Abroad programs, the UAB’s desirability is also in its locat\"exterior4_g\"ion and complexes. While most local students attend classes in the main campus, Bella Terra<\/strong>, at the foot of the mountains on the outskirts of Barcelona, The Study Abroad programs take place on two
\ncampuses located in the city. The Eixample<\/strong> campus is located in central Barcelona, close to all the buzz and amenities of the city. The other campus is in the Sant Pau<\/strong> neighbourhood, close to the Sagrada Familia, in a building called Casa\u00a0Convalesc\u00e9ncia – a stunning piece of art and architecture in itself.<\/p>\n
