History
Like other institutions of the past and of other nations, the University of Zaragoza did not suddenly arise, but rather had its beginnings in what were known as the Ecclesiastical Schools. In the city these were later known as the School of Zaragoza, whose guiding spirit in the 7th century was Bishop Braulio (which is the reason why in modern times he was made the patron saint of our University).

How Students Rated This University
- Quality of Student Life 4.3
That's why you should come to Zaragoza
It's a great place where you can have a great opportunity to learn. It has many labs and places where you can make your experiments if you are interested in Science . It's well concected with tranvs and buses which make the experience easier. Zaragoza is a good place where you can have a big international experience and make many friends. I have a great experience studying here and I would recomend everyone to come here and enjoy Zaragoza.
Familiarity
At the University of Zaragoza there is a very familiar atmosphere, that is, the welcome from the professors to the students is very close and safe. In addition, the companions that are made during all the courses become friends who will soon become a second family. I would like to highlight that at the University of Zaragoza it is very easy to learn since many of the professors like their work and it is clear that they have passion for what they explain.
hospital practises
At the University of Zaragoza there are good and bad things like anywhere, but something that I think they do very well is to leave us sixth grade free only with hospital practices to prepare for the MIR.
