Aquí tienes la traducción de los textos sobre los campus y las ventajas de la UMH, manteniendo el tono profesional, atractivo e institucional de los anteriores:
Altea
Its bohemian style, cultural relevance, and artistic tradition make the town of Altea the ideal setting for the Faculty of Fine Arts. The heart of this campus lies in its workshops (naves): open-plan spaces where students work with all kinds of techniques—such as printmaking, drawing, sculpting, or painting—applying them to materials like marble, iron, or alabaster. In addition to the fine arts, students also explore visual arts and design, gaining hands-on experience with digital audio, animation, or commercial photography within pioneering facilities.
Sant Joan d’Alacant
Healthcare degrees are concentrated at the Sant Joan d’Alacant campus, located right next to the town’s University Hospital. This campus features the CYBORG Experimental Center, which utilizes cadavers equipped to simulate human bleeding, alongside actors, robots, and virtual reality. This allows both students and specialists to learn groundbreaking surgical techniques and gain the necessary experience to perform surgeries with confidence.
Additionally, the CSIC-UMH Institute of Neurosciences is also located on the UMH Health Campus. Today, this institute is Spain’s largest publicly funded center dedicated to brain research in both healthy and pathological conditions. Furthermore, through the new scientific complex specialized in Primary Care, professionals can delve deeper into prevention, cardiovascular diseases, or patient compliance with healthcare recommendations.”
Elche
The Elche campus offers degree programs related to experimental and socio-health sciences, communication, engineering, and the legal-business field. This wide variety of programs is supported by cutting-edge facilities, such as the Sports Research Center, the university radio station, TV studio classrooms, and several research institutes, including Bioengineering, Engineering Research, and the Institute for Research, Development, and Innovation in Healthcare Biotechnology.
The university’s primary sports facilities are also enjoyed at the Elche campus, featuring a swimming pool, a golf course, padel and clay tennis courts, and a BMX track, among others.
Orihuela
In the capital of the Vega Baja region, Orihuela, the campus is split between two locations: Salesas and Desamparados. The political-business branch is taught at Salesas, located in the city center. The Desamparados campus, on the other hand, is equipped with modern facilities—considered among the largest in Spain—featuring experimental crop fields and livestock farms for the study and management of agricultural operations, always preserving animal welfare. It provides an environment where students can simulate managing an agricultural or livestock farm while developing the foods of tomorrow.
