OTHER WEB PAGES TO FIND ACCOMMODATION
EXTERNAL UAB
The UAB facilitates, as a way of information, the links
to web pages that offer housing for students, but it takes
no part either in the management of the mentioned web
pages or in the formalization of the contracts of rent and,
in consequence, does not take responsibility for the
possible disagreements that could stem from the relations
between tenants and landlords.

ENVIRONMENT
UAB is a University with a long tradition of compromise with
the environment preservation. It has an Action plan for the
sustainability and an Environment Office.
HOW CAN I CONTRIBUTE TO
MAKE UAB MORE SUSTAINABLE?
Here you can find some tips to make the UAB as ecofriendly as possible:
•
Recycling. You can recycle the paper depositing in the
blue containers that you will find inside the faculties.
You can also recycle other types of remainders (batteries,
tonners, plastic…) in the “Clean Point” (Vertedero) that
is located in the Facutly of Ciències north, near the Fire
brigade station.
•
Buying recycled products. You can buy products
made with recycled material in the Abacus (stationery)
in Plaça Cívica.
•
By using bycicle or public transport to come to University.
•
Reducing the generation of residues by using a cup
to have tea in the automatic machines (“no glass” option).
13
•
Get information from the environmental information
showcases of the faculties, about the environmental
management projects carried from/conducted the UAB.
•
You can also discover the magnificent natural
environment of the UAB walking through the two nature
paths marked that cross natural unique spaces and give
you the opportunity to know the characteristic flora and
fauna from the campus.

MEDICAL
INSURANCE AND
SOCIAL SECURITY
Any foreign student coming to study at the UAB must have medical
insurance cover.
If you are a citizen of the European Union or a citizen of Iceland,
Liechtenstein, Norway or Switzerland, and you are entitled to social
security in your country, you should apply for the European Health
Insurance Card (EHIC). The card makes visiting a state-run hospital,
doctor's surgery or dental practice in European countries easier and
means you will be treated in the same way as someone who lives in
that country. You can obtain a card free of charge by contacting your
local health insurance institution as each individual country is responsible
for producing and distributing the card in its own territory. Take into
account that the card does not cover private health care or repatriation
costs. Visit the EHIC website to find out more: http://ehic.europa.eu
If you are from outside the European Union you should check whether
there is an agreement for healthcare between the social security of your
country and of Spain. If there is such an agreement, you should submit
the necessary documents in your country so that you can have free
access to Spanish public healthcare. If your country has no healthcare
agreement with the Spanish Social Security system, you should take
out private insurance cover for the whole of your stay in Spain.
UAB has designed together with ACE Europe and ÓMNIBUS Grupo
Concentra an insurance for international students, researchers and
professors of the university. There is also an insurance exclusively for
repatriation available.
All the students under 28 registered at the UAB have right to be covered
under the UAB Educational Insurance scheme.
