Universidad de Granada (UGR)

Universidad de Granada, Vicerrectorado de Investigación y Relaciones Internacionales, Hospital Real, Cuesta del Hospicio, s/n, 18071 Granada, Spain
4.19 / 5 based on 690 reviews.
Description:
The University of Granada has suffered its ups and downs during its more than 450 years' existence but has always been the focal point of scholarship and learning in the city, to such an extent that Granada can be called a true university city, like Oxford and Salamanca for example, where the university and its colleges and annexes extend throughout the city and its influence is felt in all walks of life.
