Living in one of the leading cities in Europe is fine, but being able to develop yourself in it is much better. For all those young people who want to have a great experience, coming to study in Barcelona is an excellent option.
One of the ways that this experience is facilitated is through the Erasmus program. A program that promotes the exchange of students between European universities. Erasmus allows you to study, and sometimes even work, in a foreign country and live immersed in the local culture.
What makes coming to study in Barcelona so special?
Let’s start with the quality of learning. In Barcelona there are excellent universities, with extensive study plans that stand out for their educational quality.
All universities are easily accessible by public transport and have student services on campus, such as libraries, associations, local parties and communities for students with diverse interests.
The QS University Ranking places two of the main universities in the city, UB and UAB, in the Top 200 of the best universities in the world.
On the other hand, the city of Barcelona is very multicultural and the academic field is highly internationalized. So it is easy to find and interact with foreign students within all universities.
Another of the great advantages of Barcelona is that there are many activities that you can enjoy outside of class with your friends.
If sports is your thing, you can go jogging or rollerblading from the Sagrada Familia and down Calle Marina where you will finally end up on the beach. Or also along Avenida Diagonal and go through the entire city and most of its beautiful neighborhoods. The beach boardwalk is also an excellent outdoor space to practice sports.
If you prefer culture, you can enjoy a wide variety of museums in Barcelona, visit Palau Robert or else go to Casa Seat to enjoy some activities. We recommend our favorite local activities guide, Barcelona Le Cool.
You can also have a picnic in Parc de la Ciutadella or in any other park in Barcelona, believe us there are many.
