With the UdE, the University of Barcelona reaffirms its commitment to lifelong learning and to valuing the wisdom and experience accumulated over time.
The courses of the University of Experience, directed by David Viñas, professor of the Faculty of Philology and Communication, take place in the different faculties of the UB and thus promote the active integration of senior students in the University. These students can also enjoy many other initiatives, such as visits to the Rare Book and Manuscript CRAI Library or to various CRAI libraries, among others. The activity of the Gaudium Choir, created in 2012 and formed mainly by students and alumni of the UdE, stands out.

This UB training program aims to promote the participation of the elderly in the university sociocultural context and to help all people over fifty-five years of age to maintain an active and energetic life, both physically and intellectually.
