Admission and Enrolment

At a college with less than 700 students and more than 60 teachers, the relationship between teachers and students becomes very close. All this benefits the quality of the learning experience.

As part of our policy to foster individualised attention, at University College Alberta Giménez we have been applying a system of individual tutorials for years, enabling regular and careful monitoring of our students’ progress. Each student has a university tutor, in addition to their subject tutors. A unique and constant point of reference they can turn to.

University College Alberta Giménez has over 200 collaboration agreements in place with the most outstanding educational, communication and sporting establishments in the Balearic Islands. We promote both course placements and extracurricular placements. From very early on, the focus is placed on connecting students with the job market and fostering their entrepreneurial spirit.

The average score attained by the tutors and supervisors of the students at University College Alberta Giménez in follow-up surveys is high: an average of 8.44 out of 10 (data from the survey for the 2020-2021 academic year). The students also rate our placement processes very highly.

The Pureza de María community, owner of this college, has been devoted to teacher training since 1872. Its long 150-year history has borne much fruit on three continents. Its main mission is the integral education of the person, guided by Christian humanism.

Our work as teachers is not only based on teaching a curriculum. At our university, we want to go further: we educate people who are responsible, trustworthy, aware, competent, critical, compassionate and committed, and capable of building a better world. A university degree opens the mind to thinking with order and rigour, which enables new skills to be developed and the ability to adapt to a constantly changing world.

What both the degrees taught at University College Alberta Giménez and those given by any other academic establishment have in common is that they train young people in two respects. On the one hand, they teach the knowledge and skills corresponding to the qualification, thereby opening doors for the future to an important activity in society. And, on the other hand, a university degree opens the mind to thinking with order and rigour, and develops human and social skills which raise the person to another level, enabling them to perform other activities that are not intrinsic to the qualification. The great advantage of university is that those who are interested learn to think, to reason, to build a discourse, to analyse and to navigate society. At the same time, it trains them to channel creative impulses through adopting development techniques and mechanisms that are highly productive for those who master them.

However, there are more advantages: a university student, according to statistics, is less likely to be unemployed and normally earns a higher salary than those without that academic training. All the qualifications provided at University College Alberta Giménez open the way to the Administration’s competitive examination processes, in which university graduates can access level A, the best paid level. At the same time, all our qualification programmes lead on to opportunities in the world of education, which are only possible with a university degree.

The University College Alberta Giménez has very good transport links, through both road networks and public transport, and also for cyclists: the Palma bicycle path network is very close by. Students enjoy quality education, with a global approach, in Mallorca, in a tranquil environment such as that offered by the Vileta district.

Every academic year, we hold two open days between February and April so that you and your friends and family can tour our college and get more detailed replies to your questions. Arranging a personal interview to gain more information about the degree you are interested in is always easy.
