Limited Places

Today's children are the future. Enriching their growth and providing them continuing education is more than a responsibility. At UIC Barcelona, this is our guiding principle: we work today to improve tomorrow. We will train you to become a professional with human skills that transform and enrich society. With a sensitivity towards and enthusiasm for working with children, and a capacity for self-criticism, flexibility and transmitting culture.

The Bachelor's Degree in Pre-Primary Education focuses on education during the first 6 years of a child's life, while holders of a degree in Primary Education are responsible for education between the ages of 6 and 12.

After graduation you may decide to either enter the job market (in Spain you must hold this official qualification to work as a teacher) or pursue a master's degree (in any country within the European Higher Education Area (EHEA)) and afterwards start your doctoral thesis.

  3. Sensitivity towards diversity and gender equality and respect for human rights and civic values.
  4. Techniques to ensure peaceful co-existence in the classroom through emotional education and autonomy, encouraging hard work, persistence and discipline.
  5. Out-of-classroom skills relating to school organisation, tutoring sessions for parents or your relationship with other education agents. Preparation for the demands of today's society.
  6. Knowledge of how to introduce students to the digital world and add cultural richness through new pedagogical possibilities.
  7. Appreciation for collaborative work, critical thinking, commitment to a sustainable future, health, hygiene and physical education as means of personal and social development.
