Abstract

We present extensive photometric and spectroscopic study to give a new insight in the bulge stellar population. Super-solar alpha/Fe and its constant value along the radial profile, in most of the galaxies, suggest that the star formation in these objects has been fast and occured at the same time in the whole bulge.
