Spanish universities report enrollment growth and new institutional collaborations

The Duques de Soria Campus of the University of Valladolid (UVa) reports an optimistic start to the new academic year, with enrollment figures showing a positive trend compared to the previous year. Inés Ortega Cubero, the campus vice-rector, noted that the Degree in Translation and Interpretation has seen a notable recovery in demand, reversing a previous period of stagnation.

In Vigo, the new rector of the University of Vigo, Carmen García Mateo, held a preliminary meeting with Mayor Abel Caballero. The discussion focused on institutional cooperation, specifically addressing the need for researcher housing, urban transport routes to the campus, and the potential use of spaces in the Zona Franca area. Both parties expressed a commitment to future collaboration on academic and urban integration projects.
