WELCOME
TO RAMON LLULL UNIVERSITY
Based in Barcelona and established in 1990 as a non-profit
making University, the aim of the URL is to provide
a quality education, focussed on the person, that provides
answers to the needs of the society.
The URL promotes not only the intellectual education
but also the personal growth, and is one of the most
innovating and pioneering universities within the spanish
state. Using its own methodology that makes full use
of the students' skills, it prepares the professionals
of the future in small working groups, encouraging a
close working relationship between students and teaching
staff, promoting comprehensive training in each field
of knowledge and fostering a mastery of the new technologies.
A federation of university institutes
The success of the URL, which is formed by 10 prestigious
federated institutions with a long tradition in higher
education in Catalonia, lies in the quality of teaching
-based in the strengthening of the aptitudes of the
person-, the reduced working groups and the close relationship
between the students and the teaching staff.
To achieve this, the URL has in its centres the best
and most modern equipment and has signed agreements
with more than 4.000 companies from different sectors
in order that the students can carry out professional
training. In the same way, the centres offer all necessary
infrastructures to complement the education of the students:
libraries, laboratories, languages services, computer
rooms and audio-visual and multimedia classrooms, among
others.
Opened to other cultures and to a more and more globalized
world, Ramon Llull University considers the relationships
and the international training a very important aspect.
In this sense, it maintains agreements with networks
and institutions of great notoriety which facilitate
mobility and allow a continued exchange of students
and professors worldwide.
The professionals of the future
At Ramon Llull University we are conscious
that we educate the professionals of the society of
the future and, to the commitment which this involves,
we work in scientific and high level research and
promote a spirit of innovation and creativity. This
is a source of proud to us but it also it implies
a great responsibility. For this reason, we continue
to renew every day the enthusiasm and the effort to
put all the resources to the availability of our students.Today,
and always, we face up with great illusion the path
of the future, a path which I invite you all to walk
along together.
The URL is a part of the European Higher Education
Area

all the subject courses are taught with credits of
the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS) using methodology

which provides a university training focused on student
learning, closely following the traditional approach
of the centres of the URL.
