One of the 1,200 UAM students abroad shares his mobility experience One of the 1,200 UAM students abroad shares his mobility experience ===================================================================== CIVIS Highlights 8 mars 2024 Transnational mobility by students enrolled at the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid has increased in recent years to slightly exceed pre-pandemic levels. In the current academic year, over 1,200 UAM students are taking part in one of the calls promoted by the Vice-Rectorate for Internationalisation. A student of Biomedical Engineering at the UAM share his experience with CIVIS. ![](/storage/files/highlight-february-2024-1.jpg) *© UAM* Currently on a stay at Monash University (Australia) through an international agreement, Diego Jiménez is open about the ups and downs encountered along the way: > *I would recommend it without a doubt. All the paperwork and effort are a small price to pay when you get off the plane and discover the city where you will live for a while. I know it’s scary and it’s not all happiness as there is a long period of adaptation and being lost and alone in a new place, but I would recommend it because the positive experiences outweigh those little moments of uncertainty”*. The '*positive experiences'* mentioned by the young man include the development of transversal competences - a priority for the European Commission, as well as the promotion of job placement. The latest report of the UAM Employability Observatory indicates that *“3 out of every 10 graduates have done stays abroad, mainly within the framework of the Erasmus programme, and 73% of them have been useful for finding employment afterwards”.* And job opportunities are also part of Diego's points of interest: > *Settling in a new city is a great challenge that in turn brings a lot of value to social and intrapersonal development. In the academic sense, I think it is essential to see how other universities work. The classes are different, the infrastructures also change, and I think it gives a great boost if at any given moment I want to look for job opportunities outside Spain”,* says the student, with confidence. UAM's mobility programmes ------------------------- In an increasingly smaller and more connected world, this CIVIS Member University offers its official degree students (*Bachelor, Master, and Doctorate*) the possibility of participating in different mobility programmes. The procedures to participate in mobility programmes are carried out through the *International Relations and Mobility Service (SERIM)*, where students will be accompanied during all stages of the application process. > *I knew that an experience like this would force me to leave my comfort zone, evolve as a student and take a wonderful memory with me forever”,* concludes Diego. **Enjoy the full, [original story](https://www.uam.es/uam/noticias/programas-de-movilidad-uam), in Spanish.** Related news ------------ - [ ![](https://civis.eu/storage/files/2026-01-10-145317-800x600.jpg?token=bdddc6c1d1da89737850041c5fc0c227)Musicians from all over CIVIS come together in Madrid to promote inclusiveness Connect 22 avril 2026 ](https://civis.eu/fr/the-civis-newsroom/musicians-from-all-over-civis-come-together-in-madrid-to-promote-inclusiveness) - [ ![](https://civis.eu/storage/files/civis-coms-unit-details-12-800x600.jpg?token=18a67eed00f6009b77efc52af67e6ed2)Doctoral Webinar Challenges of Digital and Technological Transformations is back Hub 5 Digital and Technological transformation 23 janvier 2026 ](https://civis.eu/fr/the-civis-newsroom/doctoral-webinar-challenges-of-digital-and-technological-transformations-is-back) - [ ![](https://civis.eu/storage/files/highlight-december-2025-800x600.jpg?token=be0bc5540fabebf1c1480a34cb0f2ddd)"The ideal city is dense and compact", thinks Lord Norman Foster, recently awarded an honorary doctorate by the UAM CIVIS Highlights 19 décembre 2025 ](https://civis.eu/fr/the-civis-newsroom/the-ideal-city-is-dense-and-compact-thinks-lord-norman-foster-recently-awarded-an-honorary-doctorate-by-the-uam) [Découvrez toutes nos aventures](https://civis.eu/fr/the-civis-newsroom) [ Birds on our campuses project exposes biodiversity challenges ](< https://civis.eu/fr/the-civis-newsroom/birds-on-our-campuses-project-exposes-biodiversity-challenges >) [ CIVIS advocates for clear conceptualisation and criteria for a Joint European Degree ](< https://civis.eu/fr/the-civis-newsroom/civis-advocates-for-clear-conceptualisation-and-criteria-for-a-joint-european-degree >) ![CIVIS – Europe’s Civic University Alliance](https://civis.eu/build/assets/civis-CCpvK1nT.svg) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Europe’s Civic University Alliance ![Co-funded by the European Union](https://civis.eu/build/assets/co-funded-by-the-european-union-DSKLW1us.png)Views and opinions expressed do not necessarily reflect those of the European Union or the European Education and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA).
