The University of Girona

The University of Girona (UdG) is a public institution of higher education that seeks excellence in teaching and research, and participates in the progress and development of society through the creation, transmission, dissemination and critique of science, The technique, the humanities, the social sciences and the arts.

The University of Girona is rooted in the country and the Catalan culture and is one of the main economic and cultural engines of its environment. At the same time, it expresses the vocation of universality and openness to all traditions, advances and cultures.

The University is based in the city of Girona and is part of the Catalan public university system.

The History

The University of Girona is heir to the so-called Estudi General, created in 1446 by King Alfonso the Magnanimous, who granted Girona the privilege of granting degrees of grammar, rhetoric, philosophy and theology, law and medicine. The initiative arose from the municipal trustees and the church, but the classes did not officially begin until 1572, in the environment of what is now known as the building Les Àligues, built expressly as a university seat. University studies were extended with a remarkable prestige until 1717, when the University was closed following the new plant decree, which led to the loss of the political institutions of Catalonia.

Throughout the nineteenth century, and as a result of the liberal revolution, the city council promoted the so-called Free University of Girona, which offered Law and Pharmacy studies up to 1874.

The recent history of the University of Girona has as references the Normal School of Teachers and, in a special way, the initiatives that are carried out in the sixties of the twentieth century to re-establish university studies in Girona. The University College of Girona and the higher Polytechnic School are created, which depend, respectively, on the UAB and the UPC.

Subsequently, the Estudi General, which houses studies of Humanities, Business, Science and Social Sciences, is recovered. Finally, in 1991, a decree of the Catalan government created the new University of Girona, with contributions from the various university cultures, which make Girona a multidisciplinary reference point.
