4.33 / 5 based on 210 reviews.
Description:
La Universidad de Córdoba, fundada en 1972, es una Universidad joven, pero que recoge experiencias como la de la Universidad Libre que funcionó entre 1870 y 1874.

Es un campus moderno, en plena expansión, que ha emprendido un ambicioso proyecto, ya muy avanzado, a través del cual se convertirá, a principios del siglo XXI, en uno de los principales complejos de investigación y docencia agroalimentaria y medioambiental de toda Europa.

My favourite place in Cordoba it was Jazz Club. There was fantastic atmosfere. Cordoba is small but nice city with tipical Spanish climat. I think the best event are organized every year in spring time. In winter semester there is not so many events. One of the nicest I remember is the day od tree wise kongs (Tres Reyes Magos).

Overall
Language of instruction: Spanish
Was learning Spanish a key decision factor?
Yes, I wanted to improve my Spanish
How much did you improve your Spanish?
My level before: Everyday knowledge (shopping, directions, etc.)
My level after: No problems in any areas (including slang)
Personal comments:
There is not many people that can speak English in Spain, so from the beginning I had to use spanish. I think it helped me a lot to improve my Spanish. ETEA (Faculty of Economics in University of Cordoba) offered just 2 weeks course of Spanish. In additional I took part in private Spanish course organized on the faculty of Languages in University of Cordoba.
