UPV campus
The city campus of UPV provides students with countless opportunities for work and recreation — from sitting in a coffee shop with a laptop to internships at large companies. Leioa has a well developed entertainment infrastructure, but the rhythm of the big city can be distracting for some students. The university has a functioning library. In addition to educational materials in various scientific areas, it contains a collection of classical and contemporary literature. Thanks to international exchange programs at UPV, students can communicate with representatives of different countries and nationalities and thus expand their own horizons. And, the university contributes to this by regularly holding joint events for local and foreign students.
Students can stay in Spain for a year after graduation to find a job and change their student visa to a work visa. You can find other options for immigration in our article.
