Languages

Barcelona is located in Catalonia. There are two official languages in this region: Catalan and Spanish. That is why most of the information and content in television and newspapers is in Catalan. Therefore, it can be useful for you to learn a little Catalan during or before your stay. Moreover, it will make your international mobility experience much more interesting.

Even though Catalan is often used in Barcelona, with some notions of Spanish you can understand part of it.

If you are interested in learning some Catalan, the University of Barcelona and other institutions offer some courses you might want to consider. You can find some at the Linguistic Service of the University of Barcelona. You can as well find some online courses at Parla.cat or Intercat.

If you are willing to learn Spanish, you should know that the Hispanic Studies Institute of the University of Barcelona offers courses aimed at Erasmus students: Spanish as a Foreign Language.

  • Accommodation

    The University of Barcelona has some agreements with multiple organizations that help foreign students to find a place to live.

    For instance, it has a settlement with the BCU (Barcelona University Centre). It is an organization whose aim is to help foreign university students with all non-academic aspects of life such as finding the most suitable accommodation according to their needs.

    Moreover, the University of Barcelona itself provides a number of services for temporary-stay students, such as sports facilities or housing.

    If none of those options fits you, you can search a place to live through an online marketplace for booking student accommodation.

Medical, accidents and repatriation insurance

According to the University of Barcelona’s regulations, all students who will study temporarily in this university must have a medical, accidents and repatriation insurance which will cover the complete stay in the UB.

You will find more information about the characteristics of this insurance in this link.

We recommend that you read this Safety Tips in order to prevent accidents.
