Many universities offer some of their courses in English, from bachelors and masters degrees to doctoral programmes. These offer an excellent opportunity to achieve three goals at the same time: you can obtain a prestigious university degree, learn or improve your Spanish, and learn all about Spanish culture, art and customs during your stay.

When you're choosing your studies in Spanish universities, you'll find bachelor's, master's and doctoral degrees that are taught in English, and others that are taught bilingually in both Spanish and English. This option is a further addition to the wide variety of official degree courses taught in Spanish in the universities.

If you're interested in studying your bachelor's or master's degree in English in Spain, you'll find the whole range on offer at the search engine available at this link. There are bachelor's and master's degrees in English related with the five branches of study in Spain: Arts and Humanities, Science, Health Science, Social and Legal Science, and Engineering and Architecture.
If you want to come to Spain to study your doctorate, the best idea is to check the university websites. Below we give you some links to the doctoral sections in English in some universities:
