Specific information of the Faculty
Language of instruction
The UAB is a bilingual university. The official languages are Catalan and Spanish, so most subjects are taught in one of these two languages, depending on the teaching staff. To find out the language of instruction for each subject, students can consult the teaching guides for each subject.
Incoming exchange students ARE RECOMMENDED to have a minimum level of B1 in Spanish or Catalan according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). In the case of enrolling for a subject in English, they should have a minimum level of B2 in English.
The type of classes taught (related to languages, media expression and content creation) make it necessary for all our students to have a good command of the language in order to be able to carry out class work.
