Alojamiento universitario


Explanation:
That term also comprehends APPARTMENTS apart from a RESIDENCIA. I would go for "alojamiento universitario" which is a broader term (which includes appartments).

I hope it helps!

espacios/zonas comunes (de la Universidad)


Explanation:
Tres universidades españolas van más allá a la hora de adaptar sus Campus al Espacio Europeo de Educación Superior, ya que no se reducen en modernizar el interior de las aulas, sino que transformarán sus espacios comunes

Realizadas en diferentes espacios comunes de la Universidad, recogen diferentes formatos y estilos de las artes plásticas y otros proyectos
