Moreover, a quarter of enrolled students came from outside Spain.

This is an official qualification tailored to the requirements of the European Higher Education Area. Among the subjects taught are geomatics, rural development policies, land valuation, negotiation and conflict resolution or urban planning.

Finally, students are eligible for scholarships and preferential interest loans granted by government agencies and non-for-profit foundations.
