They have for different subjects..courses different languages. There is no list of witch group is in witch language so you have to go to all the groups and teachers to ask them.. this is time consuming.. At the end it worked out ok but i imagin it can be done easier

I wish you all a very nice stay here.. its a very nice city becaus it has it all.. Culture, nightlife, beach, great festivals, and a university that accepts erasmus students. The only thing... i don't know nothing about the level of the UB university in the center.. but if it is good i would prefer studying in the center and not 30 minuts with the train out of the center.

The university is all right. My faculty is really small and personal so easy to interact with other students.One disadvantage is that if you live in the center of barcelona it is an hour travelling.

I did not live on the campus, Heard good stories about it but still i prefered to live in the city. It is easy to find a room there by using the internet. I advise to do a language course at the university . This is where i met lots of different people.

Try to go before september to find a place to live, you'll find the better places and use couchsurfing in the first days without a place to save some money

Barcelona(Girona) airport has many routes to another contries by Ryanair, even to Morocco! ESN will also arrange many trips for Erasmus. You'll have the best time of your life in Barcelona, you don't need to know much things now, it's funnier to learn it there

The organization is great, but I would be careful not to follow courses thaught in Catalán, which may be hard, unless one has some basic knowledge of this language, of course.

It was a great experience for me to spend a semester in Barcelona; I definitely recommend to do it, because living in this amazing city is just great. Again, I would also recommend to acquire some command of Catalán in order to know better local people and culture.

I think you should be more clear about the information you give when students are looking for a programm: the subjects, time it will take, how practic or theoric are the subjects.

I think I will never come or go to anywhere waiting for something especial, like studies, I just will go with open mind and take anything that comes, then, I will do the best to have a good experience.

If you want to go to Barcelona at night and you do not live there, there is nearly no train back after 11 pm.

Most people speak catalan here. So if you you know spanish quite well learn catalan, if you don't do a spanish language course.

I think I did the right choice. Barcelona is one of the most beautiful cities in the world. A study of an academic magazine now proved that the faculty of economics and business studies at the UAB is one of the best in Europe. I think the courses are more practical than my courses in Germany.
