As an institution opened to students from all over the world, the eLearn Center welcomes PhD students from European countries integrated into the Bologna process who wish to develop their research in a highly internationalized and qualified environment.


Within its research, the centre offers three main lines:
I) Learning processes mediated by information and communication technologies;
II) Organisation, management and policies in the area of eLearning;
III) Educational uses of technological developments for eLearning.
