Why study in Spain?
Spain has a long tradition of excellence in education, with the first university being set up in the 13th century. It is a popular destination for international students because of its educational system, rich history, and European culture.
The country offers students a mixture of beautiful countryside and vibrant cities, as well as further travel opportunities to other European countries nearby.
What are the best programs in Spain?
Spain’s current degree system was not developed until Spain came under the European Higher Education Area. Spain now has the same general bachelor’s degree and master’s degree system found in many other countries.
Like elsewhere in Europe the majority of undergraduate programs in Spain last for three years, with more professional degree subjects such as medicine taking longer.
Universities and colleges in Spain can specialize in particular fields, as is the case with business schools, medical universities, and engineering universities.
Whether you’re looking to study for a BA, BSc, MBA or doctorate degree, Studee can help you find the perfect place to study in Spain.
