We prepare you to go far

We are a young university with the dynamism typical of youth. We have modern

facilities, cutting-edge technology and university services that offer our students and

our teaching and research staff the highest standards of academic life.

We see our work in teaching, study and research as a real commitment to society. This

means our mission is to educate young people in personal and social dignity and to aid

in the development of the economy, of science and of technology.

While the training element in students' chosen qualifications is crucial, it is also vital to

give them a well-rounded education. Hence, our efforts and our highly efficient

university services are also devoted to providing career guidance, extra-curricular

courses and personal development for these young folk.

the university

studentsThe university community comprises students, academics and support staff.

Students are our main raison d'être as a university. The steady growth in their numbers, despite a general tendency to declining enrolments in Spain as a whole, shows the results of work well done.

We do train students for work and professional activities, but more than that we try to make them into fully-rounded members of a society which we hope is improving.

Our academic staff are steadily increasing in numbers and in

the level of qualifications they hold. The quality of teaching and research they provide are

essentials for the continuing development of this young

institution. Our academics do not regard their research and

teaching activities as just a job, but see them as a personal

commitment to the University, to which many of them have

belonged since it was first created. The taking on of

further teaching staff, research programmes and projects, teaching evaluation plans, arrangements for tutorial

support and innovations in teaching techniques all ensure

permanent improvements in the quality of teaching and

research.

support staffApart from providing all the usual services required for

teaching, study and research, our administrative and other support staff participate actively in a range of technical,

administrative and other actions specific to this University. The increased number of such staff meets the needs of a new

university whose ambition is to provide education and services of the highest standard, to be an example of the best practice

and a place to which every student who has ever studied there would like to return. Among other amenities, the University runs halls of residence, student restaurants, and facilities for

cultural, sports and other leisure activities.

Note: Spanish degree structures differ in some ways from those in English-speaking countries, so equivalences are only approximate. Normally Spanish undergraduate courses involve completion of a two- or three-year Part I or Foundation Course (the first cycle or phase of studies), which either entitles successful participants to an undergraduate Diploma or allows them to enter a two-year Part II Specialist Course (the second cycle or phase) that leads to a full degree. Where degrees are shown as “Part II” in the following list, this means that the specific subject is taught only at second-phase level; successful completion of some appropriate first-phase course in a related area would be a prerequisite. Certificates and Advanced Certificates are not degrees under the rules of the Spanish Ministry of Education, Science and Sports.

A Rounded Education

Our formal qualifications are complemented

by other skills and activities needed to round

out the education of our students as

members of society. Our educational aims

are not just to pass on the specialist

knowledge for each particular degree. They

go further than this, since their chief goal is

to allow our students immediate access to

the world of work through their high levels

of qualifications but also to be members of

society who will help make it fairer and more

caring.

Cultural and sports activities, student

participation in the running of the University,

student mobility and exchanges with

universities all round the world, university

clubs and associations, interest courses in

subjects ranging from languages to

information technology, social life and team

work, plus the services intended to aid

students in seeking their future careers: all of

these are major commitments by the

University of Leon on behalf of the young

people that throng its halls.

4,858 participants in courses:general training, summer schools, skills courses and university extension programmes.

Courses

A number of sections of the University regularly organize training courses with various names and objectives. They include summer schools, skills courses, university extension courses and general training courses. In every single one, university-level rigour and quality are assured. Students may take these courses as electives within degree structures. This gives great freedom to choose from a wide range of options and so aids in building personal skills.

participants registered for language courses inGerman, Arabic, Spanish, French, English, Japanese, Portuguese and Russian

Modern Languages

Apart from the language courses that form part of degree programmes, there are “interest” courses open to the whole university community in the following languages: English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Japanese and Arabic. We believe a knowledge of foreign languages is essential for students. Apart from expanding their personal skills, it aids student mobility and exchanges with other countries and can be helpful in gaining access to employment.

There is a selection of differing timetables and levels, compatible with the schedules for lectures, practical sessions and other taught elements of degree programmes. The University of Leon encourages participation in language study through assistance to students and recognition of courses for credit as electives.

While this language instruction is intended primarily for the Spanish-speaking staff and students of the University, special provision is made for foreigners who come to Leon. There are courses in Spanish language and culture at all levels for them, ranging from those intended for foreign students or teachers who are present during the academic year to more intensive summer courses. Courses tailored to the needs of a specific group can be provided by prior arrangement.

Information Technology

A modern university like ours is always looking for ways to use new technologies, whether for teaching, for learning, for research or for day-to-day routine services. The university community can carry out almost any administrative operation over the net without having to go from office to office or to wait in queues. Students have available to them applications that allow swift and effortless completion of university formalities, and can have on-line access to their own student records at any time. They may make use of other types of service through their own personal computers or those provided in the University. These range from course registration to reserving a university tennis court or even booking theatre tickets. All students can have university e-mail accounts and constant access to the Internet at no charge.

New wireless connection technologies are present on our campuses. In Leon we are on the point of opening a new building exclusively for information technology, where there will be a further four hundred computer work stations for student use.

Student Mobility within Spain

The system for student exchanges between Spanish tertiary educational establishments (S.I.C.U.E.) provides a valuable mechanism for student mobility. Thanks to this programme, students may undertake a part of their course of studies in a university other than their own, while being guaranteed academic recognition and soundness, as also a suitable fit to their curricular profile.In this way, students can gain experience of different teaching styles and types of practical work. They can also learn about facets of the social and cultural life of other regions. Such exchanges of students are based on mutual trust between institutions, transparency of information, reciprocity and flexibility.The system for exchanges within Spain is supported financially in the shape of “Seneca” and “Fray Luis de León” scholarships, awarded competitively by the Spanish Ministry of Education, Science and Sport and by the Regional Government of Castile and Leon. More than a thousand such aids to student mobility are available each year.Apart from exchanges receiving support in the form of these scholarships, the University of Leon has a number of

International Relations

The University of Leon encourages student exchanges, both with other Spanish universities and with those of

other countries. This is done in the belief that our students' education benefits from their getting to know

other places and cultures and from living side-by-side with other groups of university students.

While it is still a young institution, the University of Leon has already gained considerable prestige both

inside and outside Spain thanks to its numerous agreements and accords with other universities, both

Spanish and foreign. This leads to a noteworthy flow of exchanges affecting both students and our academic,

administrative and support staff. At the current moment we have over 250 collaboration agreements in force with

universities outside Spain.

The largest exchange programme is the SOCRATES / ERASMUS scheme of the European Union. In proportion to its total

number of students, Leon is one of the principal participants in these arrangements among Spanish universities, and its share in

the programme is still growing. Leon is also actively involved in the INTERCAMPUS scheme providing opportunities for exchanges with Latin

American universities. It also has individual bilateral agreements with individual institutions that lead to multiple exchanges of students, researchers

and technicians.

Cultural Activities

Our intention is to attract and educate students to be critical but active participants in culture and the arts, expanding and diversifying their cultural interests. The University of Leon is one of the prime supporters of cultural activities in its immediate region. It organizes numerous events, both independently and in conjunction with outside institutions and firms. The selection criteria for what is on offer naturally include high quality, but also take into account unconventional items, off the beaten track.

Our Office for Cultural Activities provides areas for practising Music, Drama, Painting and Sculpture, and Visual Image work. It has cultural services and facilities including a video recordings library and viewing rooms, art galleries, a sound recordings library, an auditorium, and a multi-purpose theatre suitable for music, lectures and talks, drama or film showings.

Sports

Practising a sport is seen as highly desirable in our day-to-day life. Sports activities are organized at various levels of skill and competitiveness, as a function of the wishes of those taking part. Our training courses or schools are intended to provide coaching for those who wish to participate in a sport, with the instructors teaching both theory and useful practical tips. The range of sports and activities on offer is very wide and well suited to a university context. Capoeira, Karate, Pilates, Fitness Training, Self-Defence, Orienteering, Tennis, Tae Kwon Do, Skiing, Hispanic Racquetball (“Frontenis”), Swimming, Fencing, Badminton, Outdoor Activities, Latino Dancing, Folkdances of the World, Rambling, Traditional Chinese Therapies, Chi Kung, Tai Chi, Triathlon, Pony Trekking: these are just a few.

Competitions are another way to take part in sports. The internal leagues are of particular importance. These allow participants to undertake competitive sport in a university environment, striving to win but also to join with others in practising the chosen sport.

There are other competitions in which the University of Leon takes part: Spanish federation of universities leagues, Vice-Chancellor's Trophy, National and Regional Championships, among others.

Student Participation in University Management

Students take an active part in all the University's bodies for governance, which leads to a highly positive impact on the development of internal regulation of the University's activities. The regulations and standards approved take a balanced account of both student and institutional aspirations. Examples of this would be the examination rules, attendance requirements, make-up tests and other items.

Student representation is arranged in the various sections of the University in accordance with established norms and criteria and is co-ordinated through a very active Student Union. This takes note of the worries and problems of students and society at large and demonstrates the humane and caring qualities of our young folk. There is a large number of student clubs and societies, covering such areas as diverse as computing, photography, technology or social work.

There are cultural groups for theatre, an orchestra, a band and a choir. Active voluntary efforts by students lead to a dynamic campus life. The university radio station, also run entirely by students, keeps people posted on university events in the cities of Leon and Ponferrada.

The University Ombudsman

The University of Leon was the first Spanish university to establish the post of University Ombudsman. The particular usefulness of such a person to act as a go-between for the various interests present in the University has led to highly efficient actions and recognition of the office's effectiveness in resolving conflicts between members of the University. The Ombudsman acts as a mediator between all sectors of the university community and is also a crucial support for students.

Seating for 4,120 users

Libraries

Each Department, Faculty and School in the University has a library in which students and researchers have at their disposal all the publications they are likely to need for their work. In addition there are purpose-built libraries on the Vegazana and Ponferrada Campuses and the Student Centre in the heart of Leon City.

The libraries are the most striking buildings on the two campuses. Particular care was taken over their exterior and interior appearance and their technological innovations that provide all one could wish for in the way of reference materials for study, teaching and research. These libraries strive to be welcoming, attractive and innovatory both in their technology and in the services they offer. Among these are to be noted: reading rooms, lending service, interlibrary loans and document access, bibliographical information service, user induction, access to databases, journals, newspaper holdings, media rooms, information service for researchers, individual researcher carrels, videoconferencing facilities and reprographics.

Work Experience and Access to Employment

The University of Leon has a specialist service committed to managing work experience and access to employment. The successful results achieved in these areas have led to fresh resources being put into the provision of personal and professional guidance and advice.

Our students are recommended to gain work experience while studying for their qualifications. This is possible for all. We have on-campus specialists responsible for managing links with business, and these relationships have proved highly advantageous to students. Over 30% find a job in the firm where they did a work placement.

The Career Guidance Centre (C.O.I.E) allows students who have completed their degrees to have access to the main employment databases and to job offers picked out for them by our specialist staff. Training is given on how to draw up a CV, on interview techniques and how to look for work.

The University's General Foundation (F.G.U.L.E.M) also has among its objectives the running of work programmes for our graduates.

One third of our students undertake a work placementand use the career guidance services.

Research

A quest for technological advances leading to new products or processes, original investigations planned to discover new knowledge, a better understanding of scientific or technological facts and development of results: these are areas to which the University of Leon devotes a great deal of effort and a major portion of its resources.

The University is research-driven. Nearly two hundred research teams and an even larger total of research projects make research into a route for its present and an objective for its future.

The structure of research involves organization around university departments, individual researchers, research teams, institutes, research services and technology centres. One feature that receives considerable resources is the provision of equipment for researchers. Almost everything in the University is new, but the research equipment in particular is at the cutting edge in all fields.

The University of Leon has set up a Bio-ethics Committee whose remit is to evaluate the ethical questions that arise in the scientific teaching and research carried out within the University. It pays particular attention to work involving animal experiments, biomedical experimentation on humans or with samples of human origin, and experiments that use biological agents or genetically-modified organisms. Its field of competence also extends to research that uses data of a personal nature that requires special handling because this could affect people's rights and liberties, impinge on the defence and protection of the environment or involve other items that are protected by the Constitution or by law.
