WE ARE UB
We are UB and as a assigned center to the University of Barcelona, the student community of CETT-UB is able to have access to the best services and support equipments in all the areas of the university life.
Coordinated by the Learning and Research Resources Centre (CRAI), a network of sixteen different library centres located on-campus in the UB's faculties and schools, the students of CETT-UB can have access to the UB library, this network of the different libraries of Barcelona's University that counts with the biggest catalogue of all the catalan universities.
Its collection of almost two million books and specialist journals in printed and electronic formats makes the UB Library one of the largest in Catalonia and in Spain.
The UB Library offers its users the following services and resources:

A varied range of library and information resources.

Apart from being one of the largest facilities in the city in terms of sports infrastructure, UB Sports also provides members of the university community with leisure, sports and health installations.
Its 100,000 sq m of sports facilities host a wide range of directed activities and provide a series of installations for community use, among which are swimming pools, tennis courts, directed activity and fitness rooms, football and rugby pitches, a sports centre and an athletics track.
UB Sports also promotes competitive-level sport to forge a link between UB students and students from other universities. UB squads have qualified amongst the best university teams in Spain and in Catalan Championships.
The new University of Barcelona card was launched at the beginning of the academic year 2012-2013. It is a smart-card that not only identifies you as a member of the university community but also has a range of integrated functions and provides access to various services, depending on your UB profile: students, teaching and research staff (PDI) and administrative and service staff (PAS).
