VISTING GIRONA
The idea of the visit to Girona’s was to discover the possibilities that one of the most important Universities in Catalonia could give. One University that has become relevant in innovation, adapted to the new needs and good at focusing their studies into a new labor market.
Those aspects have given Girona’s University a great recognition and a reputation that is increasing every year.

University managers outlined in their speech that the university has undergone great changes and has had to adapt to the new necessities and challenges in the labor market. This has brought the need for most university professor and researchers to be part of research projects such as Biotechnology, ambient sciences, industrial technology o business management, law, economics, marketing and tourism.

Currently, practical knowledge is almost as important as theoretical knowledge and the link between the university and private companies is very close.
With that, the students get the possibility of have in an internship post in the companies and get a more practical knowledge of their subjects.
We were told what type of studies they offer, we visited the premises and specifically the library which they said is one of the most modern ones in Catalunya.
After the university visit, the students had the change to visit the city of Girona.
They were given a map and they had to reach certain points marked on the map. We made mixed groups with students from different countries as a way to let them know each other and they could learn group working at the same time.
