Universidad Antonio Narino

Universidad Antonio Nariño (UAN) was founded in 1976 with the mission to democratize knowledge by expanding higher education access and inclusion, as well as promoting equal opportunities. The UAN was the first university to develop an inclusive educational project aimed at a broad sector of the population, in particular at those coming from socially and economically deprived communities. 

For the past 40 years, the UAN has established a nationwide network of campuses in 26 cities, offering a wide range of subjects and degree programs. The University has a technical program, 5 technology programs, and 30 undergraduate programs, organized in the following faculties: 

• Engineering
• Veterinary and related sciences
• Science
• Education
• Health Sciences
• Economic and Administrative Sciences
• Arts
• Social and Human Sciences

Besides, UAN has three doctorates, 18 masters, and 14 specializations. 

This solid network of academic programs has allowed the university to have a nationwide, proactive institutional impact. These include undergraduate and graduate programs consistent with the demands and trends of local, regional, national and international development. 

Finally, within its Institutional Development Plan (IDP) 2017-2021, the UAN has defined the following focus: to be inclusive, innovative, excellent in its processes, socially and environmentally responsible and regionally positioned. As a result, the University is expected to be a destination for any citizen of the world who wants to develop higher education studies.
