Enrique Romero, senior MEng. in Electronic Enginnering (1974), BA in History (2011-2015) MA in Advanced Studies & Reseach in History (2016), back to sharing the classroom with young students initiating their University studies, realized that despite the time elpased since the implementation of the new European Space for Higher Education (Bologna Plan), his current classmates make exactly the same mistakes that he and his colleagues made in 2011, basically due to the lack of information. In a practical and informal way, this brief Guide summarizes first hand tips and tricks to students for the dos and don ts of successfully facing your first year in any Spanish University. It can also be a useful tool for ERASMUS and International Students Exchange Programs before embarking on the Spanish experience as academic rules and methods may slightly differ from those applied in the University of your own country.
