Campus life

The Faculty is located in the Moncloa Campus, minutes away by metro from Madrid's city center (see Getting to UCM by Public Transport).

It is the largest university campus in Spain, and one the largest in the world. It is home not only to many of UCM's titles: medicine, journalism, biology, etc... but also to some of the engineering schools from Universidad Politécnica de Madrid. The Campus features many services and cultural activities:

• Museums and Collections
• Cultural Activities
• What’s on
• Sport

A term in Madrid is also a great opportunity to explore the city. See this guide: Welcome to Madrid
