The University of Córdoba

Is heir to a century-old historical and cultural legacy marked by a passion for knowledge, a broad intercultural outlook, and an open worldview. Córdoba as a city has been, since ancient times, a paradigm for mankind as a whole. This spirit also informs the three áreas around which campus activities are structured: Food, Agriculture, Science and Technology; the Humanities, Law and Social Sciences; and Health Sciences. In this context, UCO is one of the country’s foremost research centres and has an unequivocal international vocation.

The University of Córdoba is concerned not only with creating first-class professionals but also with providing its students with a rounded education and a critical spirit. To these characteristics, it has to be added the strong international projection of the UCO, proved by its early participation in the Erasmus programme from the beginning of the project and more recently in Erasmus+ projects. We have increasing numbers of incoming and outgoing Erasmus students, active participation of UCO staff in mobility grants, and a relevant record of participation in both Erasmus+ Strategic Partnership and Capacity Building actions. The table below gathers the grants received in the last 3 years. Nevertheless, in previous years, we had participated in a broad range of projects (e.g., EMA2 EULAlinks, EULAsense and TEMPO projects, EMA1 and ATLANTIS JMD, EDULINK and TEMPUS projects).

Along with 10 fellow German universities, the University of Bremen became a part of the Excellence Initiative of the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research and the German Research Foundation, which aimed at promoting cutting-edge research, creating outstanding conditions for young scholars at universities, deepening cooperation between disciplines and institutions, and strengthening international cooperation of research.
