More than sun and sea - Study in Spain

Je länger und grauer sich der deutsche Winter gestaltet, umso reizvoller ist es, einen Teil seines Studiums in sonnigeren Gefilden zu absolvieren. Eines der Traumziele schlechthin, nicht nur für Urlauber sondern auch für Bildungshungrige, ist Spanien. Mit rund 5 000 deutschen Studierenden pro Jahr steht das Land dem Deutschen Akademischen Austausch Dienst (DAAD) zufolge an der Spitze der Zielländer im Rahmen des beliebten ERASMUS-Programms der EU.

Spaniens Hochschullandschaft is diverse: the country has about 77 universities, of which 50 are under 27, with public and private ownership, spread over 180 locations throughout Spain. Including universities, are able to look back on a century-long tradition, founded in 1218 as the Universidad de Salamanca, huge scientific centers such as the Universidad Complutense de Madrid or the Universidad Islas Baleares, with its headquarters in Palma de Mallorca.

Spain right now in the Bologna Process the degrees of Bachelor and Master structure. Despite comparable degrees but there are some differences between the German and English academic system:

• For the bachelor's degree is usually four and not three years as provided in Germany. The master's program is building up again usually completed in one year.
• The English university system has no term. The academic year in Spain runs from October to June, lecture-free test phase in January and February and in June and July.
• The academic achievements are recognized with the well-known to us in "credit points" or credits, which are called in Spain " Créditos . The notes themselves are in Spain, however, give different. Unlike Germany, it is with a one is at the bottom of the rating scale, the highest rating is 10, which is however very difficult to achieve.

Before the trip to the warm south, of course, first to decide if you want to study in Spain, only one or two semesters or a full-time study with a degree (bachelor, master or doctor) decides. Depending on when planning a few things to consider:

• The ERASMUS program of the EU can be realized quite simply a stay of three to twelve months in Spain. Tuition fees must be paid not to the host institution under the program, there are also mobility grants, assistance programs on the ground and opportunities for recognition of foreign-provided services at the German university. In addition to the ERASMUS program are numerous other funding opportunities for education stay in Spain. An overview of the DAAD under http://www.daad.de/ausland/foerderungsmoeglichkeiten/stipendiendatenbank/00658.de.html?land=41&overview=1&daad=1
• The language of English universities is generally English. Therefore, sufficient language skills are essential in order to follow the lectures. In some regions of Spain will be partly taught in regional languages such as Basque or Catalan.
• Wer als Deutscher ohne Förder- oder Austauschprogramme an einer spanischen Uni studieren will, für den gelten in der Regel die gleichen Voraussetzungen wie für spanische Staatsbürger. Mit einem deutschen Bachelorabschluss hat man aber in der Regel gute Möglichkeiten, einen Master in Spanien dranzuhängen.
• In Spanien werden Studiengebühren erhoben, die allerdings bei den öffentlichen Universitäten vergleichsweise überschaubar sind und pro akademisches Jahr zwischen 550 und 800 Euro liegen.
