We are thrilled to welcome you to the University of Almería for the upcoming academic year! As part of our commitment to promoting sustainable practices, we are excited to announce the UAL-UNIGREEN Travel Award, a unique contest that celebrates eco-friendly travel.
 

What is the UAL-UNIGREEN Travel Award?

This award aims to encourage sustainable mobility by rewarding international students who choose low-polluting means of transportation to travel to UAL. By participating, you not only contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions but also stand a chance to win exciting prizes!

 

 

 

The prizes 

 

The prizes will be awarded as vouchers for Sports Activities , Cultural Activities or Language Course of your choice offered by the University of Almería during your stay

 

1st Place: €300

2nd Place: €200

3rd Place: €100

 

Additionally, the University of Almería will implement a limited bicycle loan system. The three award winners will receive a special reservation to ensure access to a bicycle without needing to participate in the general loan application process.

The winners will be announced at the International Students Welcome Ceremony on February 7, 2025.
