The University of Huelva is a young dynamic institution, striving for excellence and a brilliant future for its 12,000 students. Our motto is Sapere Aude – Dare to Know in English. Since the university gained its independence from Seville University in 1993, it has continued to grow and we now have a brand new campus with modern facilities and installations. Students can choose from a wide range of both undergraduate and postgraduate degrees and diplomas within our schools and faculties with an increasing number of subjects taught in English.
A recent survey found that the Spanish were among those Europeans who spend most time studying. On the other hand it is said and widely agreed that Spain has one of the best lifestyles in the world. So it can be safely said that in Huelva our students both work hard and play hard. Huelva as a city offers a host of opportunities for leisure and entertainment from cinema, concerts and theatre, to bowling, restaurants, and tapas bars. Lunch and dinner are usually later than in other countries. Visitors should not expect to get lunch before 1pm or dinner before 8:30pm and in the hotter months even later! Huelva has something to offer everyone whether you like spending your weekends trekking along mountain footpaths or clubbing till dawn you are sure to find something. Being a small city (population 145,000) not only can you easily walk from the centre to the outskirts but you can also do it in safety. Huelva has one of the lowest crime rates in Spain.
