About the university

The University of Zaragoza is a public university with colleges in Zaragoza, Huesca and Teruel. Its university status was confirmed in 1542, and THE describes it as one of the oldest universities in Spain. It has about 28,000 students.

Its School of Engineering and Architecture (EINA) runs master's in artificial intelligence, robotics and computer vision, biomedical engineering, renewable energy and telecommunications. The Faculty of Economics and Business offers master's in accounting and finance, and in management, strategy and marketing.

For Indian students, two engineering master's stand out because they are taught in English: Artificial Intelligence and Computational Engineering (new for 2026–27) and Robotics, Graphics and Computer Vision. Unizar charges non-EU students double the local price, but a 60-credit master's still costs about €3,650 in tuition.

Daily life in Zaragoza runs in Spanish, and most other master's need Spanish at B2.
