There are four faculties at the university, Communication, Education, Health & Technology and Science, in which both undergraduate and graduate degrees are offered. There are approximately 3,500 face-to-face students at bachelor, masters and doctoral level. UCJC is the first Spanish university to commit to a socially aware, humanitarian and international academic education.
The UCJC Foundation (Fundación UCJC) facilitates and supports initiatives that, within the framework of education, propose solutions to the challenges of our society based on cohesion, civic commitment, diversity, solidarity and healthy living. Through these dynamic initiatives and research, the university educates its students in a transversal way, in social values. One such project is the Integra Project, which since its launch in 2017 has welcomed young refugees who have fled war in countries including Syria, Iraq, Ukraine and Afghanistan. This pioneering programme has helped them adapt to life in Spain, learn the language, integrate into the culture and allowed them to start or resume their studies at third level, through full scholarships at the university.
The International Relations department is responsible for the internationalisation of the institution, which is one of its strategic pillars. It has organised several initiatives for students, such as study abroad trips, virtual exchanges, international weeks at partner universities, short-term study programmes, etc.
