A university like any other. This university is an official private university, authorized by the Spanish State.
This university, which is part of the UE (Universidad Europea) group, along with the UEM (in Madrid) and the UEV (in Valencia), will allow you to obtain the same degrees.
In architecture and physical therapy, for example, you will obtain the Spanish state diploma which, after the necessary administrative procedures, allows you to practice in France.
But a university not quite like the others
Several aspects make this university different from other universities in Spain and these aspects are the ones that are taken into account by the international students who have chosen it to follow their university course in Spain.
- The size of the university: it is a "family" university. All the students know each other, all the students know the faculty and administrative staff, and the reverse is also true. The few photos on this page taken during our visit in October 2017 testify to this. The small space forces the meeting between all members of the educational community.
- Study in small groups: the rooms can accommodate a maximum of 20 people. This ensures individualized follow-up by the teachers and constant exchanges and attention with them.
- Campus location: For physiotherapy students, the campus is located in Santa Cruz de Tenerife. It's in the north of the island, perfect for living in the Spanish atmosphere of Tenerife.
- Its location in Spain: If you like nature activities (sea and mountain) this university is made for you. Its atypical location since it is situated on the island of Tenerife in the Canary archipelago will allow you to practice all the activities related to these two worlds on a daily basis. Canarians are very welcoming and the atmosphere is very relaxed. Studying for 4 or 5 years on the island is a real plus for those who appreciate a safe and pleasant lifestyle (the island of eternal spring...).
- The cost of living: affordable housing (roommates from 250 euros per month) and healthy food are the norm for students in the Canary Islands. If the distance scares you, rest assured that you will receive many visits from family and friends in France and that by living in the Canary Islands during your studies you will be entitled to preferential airfare.
