Welcome from the general director

On behalf of Blanquerna-URL, I would like to offer you our warmest welcome. We are a university community of excellence, a non-profit institution and co-founder of Ramon Llull University, the top private university in Catalonia.

From the innovative school of Teacher Training, which was created in 1948 to contribute to our country's pedagogical renewal, emerged the schools we boast today: the School of Psychology, Education and Sport Sciences, the School of Health Sciences, and the School of Communication and International Relations.

We train qualified professionals, with high employability prospects, to have a positive impact on society. We are a pluralistic university community, inspired by the principles of Christian humanism, whose mission is the integral education of people for them to become competent, ethical and committed professionals in the transformation of society. We are at the service of society, we believe in the transfer of knowledge to contribute to building a better, more humane world. Excellence is the future.

Dr. Giorgia Miotto, general director of Blanquerna-Ramon Llull University

Ramon Llull Chair

The Ramon Llull Chair was founded in 1994 to develop a common instrument and space for the Blanquerna faculties. The Chair takes the humanistic, integrative, committed and transcendent perspective of the scale of understanding of Ramon Llull as its fundamental bases. It is structured in four main areas: academic field, pastoral field, solidarity and cooperation field and identity and mission field.

We make Blanquerna a safe space

Blanquerna has prepared the spaces and organized the schedules to ensure that students and teachers gather in the classrooms, while also holding online teaching sessions. Our goal is to ensure the quality of teaching and services that Blanquerna has always offered, but, in particular, to preserving the health of all parties involved.
