庞培法布拉大学

Pompeu Fabra University was founded in 1990 by the Autonomous Government of Catalonia. Its headquarters are in Barcelona, the capital of Catalonia, and the essential aims of this institution are based on training good professionals and contributing to conducting research. Since its foundation, the University has consolidated its teaching and research project and has achieved a high return from resources society has placed at its disposal. On-going educational and technological innovation and improvement, high academic performance of its students, a high level of employability of its graduates and a high rate of internationalisation and good positioning of the University within the scope of research are only some of the aspects that have contributed to the high prestige the institution has managed to achieve. The UPF offers all-round training by applying a strict teaching model of high-quality and excellence.
