UAB
Casa Convalescència is a building which is part of the modernist
Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau complex. It is the UABs
Continued Education Center and "Third Cycle" Studies Center, located
in downtown Barcelona. It is also the headquarters for the UAB Foundation,
the Doctor Robert Foundation, the Josep Laporte library and the UAB Idiomes
(Language Center). This building offers a wide range of facilities, halls
and classrooms that further compliment the facilities of the Congress and
Convention Center at the UAB campus.
Casa Convalescència runs training courses, masters programs,
seminaries and conferences on a wide range of educational issues, especially
those having to do with health and life sciences. It is also possible to rent
its facilities for conventions, business meetings, seminars and gatherings. Its
physical characteristics and location are ideal for events related to health
and life sciences, which are frequently held here. The entire 6,245 square
meter center is divided into three floors and a basement, with classrooms
that are fully equipped with multi-media technology.
