A unique and pioneering methodology

At La Salle Campus Barcelona, the student is at the center of learning with its own unique methodology, learning by challenge. With it, students acquire skills and knowledge through the resolution of real challenges posed by both companies and organizations or institutions.

The training goes beyond the classroom, with real problems, research, and transdisciplinary experiences with different areas of knowledge in an international environment.
 

In addition, La Salle Campus Barcelona implemented Smart Learning in 2020. This is a flexible and intelligent educational model that adapts to the educational needs of students. A way of teaching and learning that complements face-to-face teaching at the Campus.

During their studies, students are never alone. In addition to their personal tutor, our students will be able to work together with professors and researchers from all over the Campus.

Learning both in and outside the classroom:

• Power your skills and aptitudes
• Student exchange programs available all over the world Universities
• International stages
• Learning by challenge
• Humanities
• Personalized student attention
• Smarlearning Smartclassrooms in a Smartcampus
• Work placements in leading companies

This methodology is applied both in our on-site and online programs.

Our students are:

State of the art laboratories

The Campus has 39 specialized laboratories equipped with the latest technologies related to each degree. Students can access these spaces whenever they need to work on their projects and advance at their own pace.

In the research and innovation environment, La Salle-URL has two laboratories:

• Internet of Things Institute of Catalonia (IOTICAT), constituted as the first European University Laboratory for Innovation and Research on the Internet of the future.
• Interactive Arts & Science Laboratory (IASlab), a laboratory that aims to become a hub of reference in the new audiovisual sector and a leading center in the media technologies of the 21st century.

We are committed to talent

At La Salle we offer all the facilities to promote the employability of our students. In addition to personalized advice to focus their professional future, with work placements in leading companies like:

Innovation is part of our DNA to promote renewal and adaptability to new times and constant change. For this reason, in 2001 we created the La Salle Technova Entrepreneurship Park with the purpose of combining innovation, entrepreneurship and technology. We accompany startups from the generation of ideas to the commercialization of projects in the market, their growth and consolidation.
 

The role of humanities in the revolution 4.0

With the aim of improving the imaginative and problem-solving capacity of our students, La Salle incorporates philosophy into its educational offerings with two degrees:

• Bachelor's Degree in Philosophy
• Bachelor's Degree in Philosophy, Politics and Economics
• Master's Degree in Research in Philosophy and Humanistic Studies

 
A humanistic training that is complemented by the course of Thought and Creativity, taught by the philosopher and writer Josep M. Esquirol, and a homonymous and transversal subject for all undergraduate degrees.

This commitment is in line with the growing demand from companies for empathetic professionals, capable of providing more human and ethical management, in a world where algorithms and machines are becoming more and more frequent. Companies such as Google, IBM and Microsoft have been the first to incorporate philosophers into their teams. The goal is to help their programmers and engineers to think outside the box and imagine new scenarios, with a special focus on people.
 

The future lies in the union between science and literature, technology and humanism, and art and engineering. This is where philosophy plays a key role. New technologies will need philosophers to build digital platforms such as the metaverse. A space in the cloud driven by the Facebook company (now Meta), where the human being will be able to have access to totally virtual life.

Technological innovation in the health field

The application of ICT and technological innovation in healthcare management is one of the great challenges of the future. The proliferation of increasingly complex tools has boosted the demand for professionals capable of successfully combining technology and healthcare.
