# Ice hockey at the 2015 Winter Universiade

Ice hockey at the 2015 Winter Universiade was held from February 3 through February 14 at the Granada Sport Palace and the nearby Mulhacen Pavilion in Granada. In most cases, men's matches were played at the Granada Sport Palace and women's matches were played at the Mulhacen Pavilion, although exceptions were made for the women's semifinals and medal games played in the larger Granada Sport Palace, while some lower men's placement games and one quarterfinal were played at the Mulhacen Pavilion. The draw to place the teams - 11 in the men's tournament and seven in the women's tournament, including the hosting Spain sides in both cases - into their assigned pools took place on September 25, 2014.
