BARCELONA
The Mediterranean International Business Capital
4
The city of Barcelona and its metropolitan area have
become one of the European Union’s most dynamic
regions. Today, Barcelona is the sixth largest metropolitan
area and the fifth largest industrial conurbation in
Europe. Barcelona is placed among the premier European
cities for its quality of life. It also ranks highly as one
of the most favoured destinations for business executives.
ECONOMY AND BUSINESS
Barcelona and its metropolitan area are considered to
be one of the principal motors of the Spanish economy.
This is due to its high level of industrialisation, the
dynamism of its economy and business, and the level
of access to international markets. During the last few
years, the economy has undergone a process of rapid
tertiarisation due to the efforts made to develop activities
related to new technologies. The intention is to turn
Barcelona into “the City of Knowledge”.
LEISURE AND CULTURE
Barcelona offers its visitors and citizens diverse cultural, sports, leisure and entertainment activities. Museums,
theatres, cinemas, concerts, opera, exhibitions, international fairs, concert halls and art galleries are part of
the cultural activities on offer. Works of art by some of the most prestigious artists of the 20th century, such
as Picasso, Miró, Tàpies and Dalí are to be found. Barcelona has many important international cultural centres,
the MACBA-Museu d’Art Contemporani de Barcelona, the MNAC-Museu Nacional d’Art de Catalunya, and the
CAIXA FORUM.

Barcelona is an ideal city for professional sport.
It has high quality facilities, good public
transport, hotels and a pleasant climate. The
1992 Olympic Games provide dthe city with
a valuable sporting legacy: an extensive
infrastructure for both professional and amateur
sport.
The sporting facilities in the former Olympic
areas have become top-quality sports complexes
with a variety of purposes. They are suitable
for sports courses and professional training
sessions and are also available to the general

WHY STUDY ABROAD?
Study Abroad is an enriching and eye-opening experience,
not only personal but academic and cultural. Living and
studying in a foreign country and getting in touch with
other cultures, customs, people and language encourages
the development of competencies that can be of interest
to future employers and definitively an experience impossible
to forget.
The benefits of studying abroad cannot be overstated, they
can be summarised in:
· Personal growth
Students explore new ways of thinking and living, which
fosters personal growth and independence, an experience
which enriches them personally and professionally.
· New perspective on world affair
Study abroad is a great opportunity to broaden your
intellectual horizons and go deeper into the knowledge
and understanding of international, political and economic
issues. As a result of a sojourn abroad, students acquire
a more informed and accurate perspective on world affairs.
It is the best opportunity to have first-hand knowledge of
different ways of approaching tasks and challenges of
everyday life, learning 'global' the international culture
has become and appreciating the importance of
international cooperation.
· Career enhancement
Study abroad not just promotes academic enrichment and
personal growth, it enhances your employment prospects,
especially in the fields of business and international affairs.
Students who have successfully completed a study abroad
programme are likely to have gained international knowledge
and often second-language skills, most valued by employers.
Other competencies that graduate and professional schools
and employers highly appreciate and constitute an added
value are cross-cultural communication and analytical
skills, understanding of and familiarity with local customs
and cultural contexts, flexibility, and ability to adapt to
new circumstances and deal constructively with differences.
Today competitive job market requires applicants to
distinguish themselves from the rest and an international
education experience is the perfect way to achieve it.
Having international experience will give a great impact to
your curriculum vitae, as it shows prospective employers
your motivation, independency and general qualifications.
Additionally, obtaining foreign languages skills make
students eligible for a wider range of jobs.
