At UPF, the academic year is divided into three terms

Each term consists of ten weeks of classes and a two-week exam period. This system, which is unique among Catalan public universities, encourages students to concentrate on what they are studying each term and enhances academic performance.

You will acquire transferable knowledge and skills

UPF provides cross-disciplinary training, essential in today’s global and interconnected world. You will also find interdisciplinary, double and simultaneous degree programmes.

UPF offers internships at leading companies and institutions

We will help you develop the professional skills and competences you need to thrive in today’s workplace. You will learn to work in teams, give oral presentations, write reports, and make fluent use of information and communication technologies. We will also help you familiarize yourself with the working world through external internships in Spain and abroad. Nearly all bachelor’s degree programmes require students to complete an internship designed to bring them into direct contact with companies and institutions.
