The University Universidad de Sevilla Avda Ramón y Cajal 1 41018 Sevilla Spain Website http://www.internacional.us.es/erasmus- internacionales Escuela Universitaria de Estudios Empresariales (School of Business Studies) Avda. San Francisco Javier, S/N Sevilla – 41005 What it is like to study at Universidad de Sevilla Check out these videos Video 1 Video 2 Location Seville is the artistic, cultural, and financial capital of southern Spain, irrigated by the river Guadalquivir. It is the capital of Andalusia and of the province of Sevilla and ranks as the fourth- largest metropolitan area of Spain. The city sits well inland, but a mere 6 meters above sea level. Andalucia was occupied by Moors for about 800 years but Seville was a cultural center long before. The fertility of the land and its climate with mild winters and about 3000 hours of sun per year (in August temperatures can reach 47°C) made Phoenicians and Carthaginians settle here. Later came the Romans, and two of its emperors, Trajan and Hadrian, in fact were born here. Seville was long an important sea port, prior to the silting up of the Guadalquivir. Today the city is an important conference and business centre for southern Spain. Semester/key dates First semester: end of September – early February (Arrival second fortnight in September) Second semester: mid-February to early July (Arrival first fortnight of February) Academic Calendar Courses Available Students will study at the University of Seville either for the full academic year (from the last week of September to the following July and middle of September, if necessary, for exams) or for one semester, followed or preceded by a work placement.

Some of the most impressive and old Universities have been built in Spain. Education has always been an important issue for society and so it was in Spain.

University of Salamanca This is the oldest University in Spain that is still actively working and it is also the 5th oldest University in Europe! Its construction is dated back in the year 1218, and it was one of the medieval Universities with a higher work rate. Its academic model was even introduced in almost every other University in Spain in the XIX century. The city of Salamanca has been from that time on considered one of the symbolic university cities of Spain. This University is also famous for one of the beautiful façades in which there is a hidden frog on top of a skull. Everyone stares there trying to find it! Walk around this great city of Salamanca and stay at our Parador de Salamanca, to discover the magnificence of its University.

  • Analysis of Training Offers on Active Methodologies for University Teachers in Spain. European Journal of Educational Research, 9(2), 1223-1234
    Research Article doi: 10.12973/eu-jer.9.3.1223 European Journal of Educational Research Volume 9, Issue 3, 1223 - 1234. ISSN: 2165-8714 http://www.eu-jer.com/ Analysis of Training Offers on Active Methodologies for University Teachers in Spain Lina Higueras-Rodriguez Maria del Mar Garcia-Vita Marta Medina-Garcia* University of Almeria, SPAIN University of Almeria, SPAIN University of Almeria, SPAIN Received: April 12, 2020 ▪ Revised: June 28, 2020 ▪ Accepted: July 10, 2020 Abstract: The current offer of training courses for university teachers is due, among other needs, to the implementation of an educational model based on student learning, promoting the use of active methodologies for their motivation and academic performance. An exploratory-descriptive and ideographic study is presented where the main technique is the analysis of content. To this end, 15 Spanish universities with the greatest prestige were analyzed according to the parameters of the Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU) in relation to the topics related to active methodologies and the profile of university teachers. The results show the different teacher training courses that have been carried out during the 2019/2020 academic year. We find that there are more universities that present more training of this type than others, and who this type of training is aimed at: new teachers and teachers with professional experience. The conclusions are related to the importance of the courses for the professional development of university teachers, since they should not be anchored in the same methodology, but should be open to new challenges and always taking into account the students, enhancing their motivation and academic performance.

  • Forging Imperial Cities: Seville and Formation of Civic Order in the Early Modern Hispanic World
    Forging Imperial Cities: Seville and Formation of Civic Order in the Early Modern Hispanic World By ©2014 Stephanie Stillo Submitted to the graduate degree program in History and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy ________________ Luis Corteguera Chair ________________ Marta Vicente ________________ Elizabeth Kuznesof ________________ Robert Schwaller ________________ Patricia Manning Date Defended: 12/11/2013 The Dissertation Committee for Stephanie Stillo certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Forging Imperial Cities: Seville and Formation of Civic Order in the Early Modern Hispanic World _______________________ Chairperson Luis Corteguera Date Approved: 12/11/2013 ii Abstract In 1503 the Spanish monarchy awarded the city of Seville a monopoly on Spanish-American trade. Serving as the gateway to Spain’s lucrative Atlantic Empire for over two centuries, the city fashioned itself as an imperial capital, and natural successor to ancient Rome. Despite never serving as the official capital to the Spanish Habsburgs, civic authorities in Seville nonetheless expressed their city’s wealth and nobility through an excess of laudatory histories, artwork, architectural renovations, and regional patron saints. This dissertation first contextualizes Seville’s prominence by exploring how Phillip II’s refusal to establish a permanent capital in Madrid until 1561 promoted competition between many cities in Castile, all of which saw themselves as potential contenders for the future imperial court. As Spain moved into Atlantic territories, this competition helped fashion the urban organizational strategy for colonial settlement in the New World. As Seville was the most important city in Spain during the early modern period, the city greatly influenced the conceptualization and development of Spanish-American cities between the late sixteenth to the early eighteenth centuries.
