Universidad de Los Andes
The University of Los Andes was founded in Bogotá on November 16, 1948 as the first private institution of higher learning in Colombia with a secular and independent nature. This institution was founded to educate and create a new country that could overcome the political differences of the time. Its mission was to close the gap of knowledge between Colombia and the technological advances made in the rest of the world. This purpose has helped the University of Los Andes to reach local and world recognition as an institution of excellence.
