UCAM (Universidad Católica de Murcia) is a private university founded in 1996 with a clear mission: to train students with knowledge and skills to serve society, to contribute to the further expansion of human knowledge through research as an integral part of the development of mankind and to participate in the evangelical mission of the Catholic Church in the areas of education and culture.

UCAM’s Campus de Los Jerónimos is located in Murcia, the capital city of the Southeastern region of Spain, where Mediterranean weather joins the natural beauty of the beaches of Costa Cálida, with the mountains and fields of the Huerta de Europa. UCAM is one of the Spanish universities with the greatest number of programmes taught in English and the one that offer the highest number of degrees in this language in the region of Murcia. The World University Rankings especially highlights the internationalisation capacity of UCAM. The Europe Teaching Ranking 2019 also placed UICAM as the 10th University in Europe in terms of teaching quality.

UCAM has around 340 renowned international strategic partners, among which are several leading colleges and universities around the world, such as UC Berkeley, Stanford and NTU.

The university is characterized by offering students an integral education based on the combination of in-depth theoretical and practical knowledge, in addition to a values-based education rooted in the principles of Christian humanism. Renowned professors and a team of personal tutors keep track of their students from the beginning of their studies until the end, always with the aim of providing tools to improve their student’s performance, while strengthening their education.
