The University of Sevilla, founded in 1551, is one of the oldest universities in Spain. It is a state institution under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Education and one of the largest universities in Spain, with an enrollment of over 75,000 students. The university grants undergraduate degrees as well as doctorates. ISA currently has agreements with three of the university’s facultades (i.e. schools/faculties): The Facultad de Filología (Philology), the Facultad de Geografía e Historia (Geography and History) and the Facultad de Economía (Economics). The Faculty of Philology and the Faculty of Geography and History are housed in the university’s central downtown complex, located next to the famous Plaza de España. The School of Economics is located within minutes of the downtown complex in one of the more modern sections of the university. The University of Sevilla has four libraries available to all students: Dante Alighieri (the Library of Philology, History, and Geography), the Library of Manuals, the Art library, and the general library. In addition, each department has its own research facilities.
