UNIVERSITAT DE VALÈNCIA, ESTUDI GENERAL.
The Universitat de València is one of the oldest universities in Europe. In fact, the University Statutes were passed by the municipal magistrates of Valencia on 30th April 1499. In 1501, Pope Alejandro VI signed the bill of approval and one year later Fernando II "el Católico" proclaimed the Royal Mandatory Concession. Within its 500 years of history the Universitat de València has progressively expanded its areas of study. Currently, the University offers a wide range of disciplines. One of the University's main objectives is to maintain its high quality in both teaching and research. Moreover, the Universitat de València is committed to keeping and establishing links with universities world-wide, either through bilateral agreements or by taking part in international programmes and networks. Thanks to international exchanges, students from different nationalities and cultures live and work together at the Universitat de València.
The university has around 60,000 students, supervised by more than 3,000 lecturers and 1,500 people working as administrative staff.
There are four campuses:
On the Blasco Ibañez Campus we find the Schools of Medicine and Dentistry, Philosophy and Educational Sciences, Psychology, Geography and History, Languages, Physical Education, Physiotherapy, Nursing and, nearby, the School of Elementary Teacher Training.
The third campus, Tarongers, houses the Schools of Law, Economics and Business, as well as Social Sciences.
The Burjassot Campus houses the colleges of Biology, Pharmacy, Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics and the new School of Engineering.
