Located in the heart of Barcelona, UPF is located next to Ciutadella Park and only blocks from the famous Barceloneta beach, offering a study abroad setting like no other in one of the world’s top destinations. 

Education Abroad Programs at UPF have been specially designed to fit the needs of international students that want to spend a summer, semester or a full academic year in Barcelona.
