Campus Bio-Medico University of Rome

The Campus Bio-Medico University of Rome was established in the late 1980s by Bishop Álvaro del Portillo, who was the Prelate of Opus Dei at the time. The university was created with the intention of providing a university clinic in Rome that could offer comprehensive human and professional training to students, while also adhering to the Christian spirit of service. The university is owned by two promoting bodies, the Campus Bio-Medico Association and Campus Bio-Medico Spa. The latter is responsible for the University Hospital building and other properties on the campus. One of the main objectives of the university is to cultivate a passion for reality, the world, and the environment among its students. It aims to provide them with the necessary skills and knowledge to succeed in their chosen professions while also fostering personal growth and fulfillment. Additionally, the university emphasizes the importance of work as a means of serving others, further emphasizing its commitment to the Christian spirit of service.
