CEU Cardenal Herrera University

The first thing to remember is you’re studying and living in Spain. You’ll get so much more out of your degree, the university experience and your life, in general, in Spain if you can speak Spanish to a reasonable level. The time and effort you spend learning Spanish is well worth it, so we strongly recommend setting aside some time to learning Spanish every week. However, it’s also true that if you are enrolled on a bilingual degree and your degree requires you to undertake practical training in Spanish (e.g. Veterinary Medicine, Dentistry, Physiotherapy, etc.), then you will need to learn Spanish and, in most cases, demonstrate a B1 level of Spanish at some stage before you can graduate, but some degrees have other requirements. When exactly you will need to demonstrate that you possess the required level will depend on the degree you are studying. Ask your Spanish teacher or go to the section for your degree of the University website for more specific details.

For some degrees, it is possible to gain credit recognition for attending our Spanish or English language courses. This can vary depending on which degree you are on – ask about this at your faculty’s secretary’s office.

We offer in-person B1 and B2 English courses, free of charge, which run from September to May. We also offer courses to prepare for the C1 Advanced exam and some language support classes for those who aren’t ready to begin a B1 course. You can also book a conversation session with our teachers. Another option available to you is our online platform Dexway: you can use it to learn English, Spanish and five more languages at your own pace.

The course timetables are generally published on the Language Service noticeboards in mid-September or the beginning of February. They are also available on our Sharepoint site. For our special summer courses, write to idiomas@uchceu.es
