How to arrive at the campus?

There is a very frequent tram bus from the Parque Ribalta (very close to the town centre) and from the train station which leads to the campus. You will arrive very easily in 10 minutes from the city centre and in 5 minutes from the train station. Once you arrive at the campus, you have to get off the bus at the Agora bus stop (a big round square), and then head towards the library building, following the Infocampus sign. We are located next to Infocampus.

Where is the OCIE (Office for International and Educational Cooperation)?

As you arrive, you should come to our office, which is open from 8.30 to 14.30. During the month of September and half February it is open from 9h to 15h from Monday to Thursday and from 9h to 14h on Fridays. We are in the building adjacent to the library, on the ground floor next to the Infocampus.
