"Campus Activities" return to the UAB

Campus UAB
Monday 14 October marks the start of the "Campus Activities", an initiative which began last year to foster the organisation and attendance of students in a series of activities which will take place throughout the academic year - all are held from 1 to 3 p.m. - during which academic activities will not be held.

07/10/2019

Thanks to a proposal by the UAB governing team and with the consensus of of all faculties, the Governing Council set aside eight days, spread out through two academic semesters - reserved for campus activities from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. These activities can be organised by faculties, students, UAB services, etc.

The days on which the activities will be held are Monday 14 October; Thursday 7 November, the UAB's annual Festa Major; Tuesday 10 December; Wednesday 15 January; Tuesday 18 February; Tuesday 18 March; Thursday, 16 April; and Friday, 15 May 2020.

The objective is to facilitate attendance to non-academic activities and help students make use of the concentration of knowledge existing at the UAB, especially after eliminating the old campus subjects with the introduction of the new Bologna Plan.

This initiative aims to foster the organisation of activities and also strengthen ties among all UAB students.
