This department’s aim is to address those subjects that really matter to us all but that we don’t usually take time to consider, such as the desire that relations last forever, death, suffering, what God has to do with our daily lives, etc. Once a month we organise the ‘Café Newman’, where we discuss a different academic subject. There are also 2-hour mini-courses to look further into these questions, always based on a literary or artistic piece, guided by one of our lecturers. As culture is the expression of man and his drama, we like to move in it, to understand what our nature is a little better and what we really should wish for.

UFV wants its students to take the máximum advantage possible of their studies. This is why, through the Educational Orientation Office (Gabinete de Orientación Educativa – GOE), we show them how to better organise themselves, optimise both their study and spare time and overcome the difficulties they may find on their way. We also help them to develop their cognitive, emotional and social abilities integrally. This is a personal attention service, apart from seminars and workshops where one can participate by applying online.
