The University of Alcalá (UAH) is one of Europe’s oldest.

The UAH is a modern, medium-sized institution, recognized as a trend-setter in Europe and the American continent. The City of Alcalá de Henares is in the Autonomous Region of Madrid, 30 km from Madrid on the Madrid-Barcelona motorway and 20 km from Madrid’s international Adolfo Suarez-Barajas Airport.
