📖 Introduction

The University of Buenos Aires is a public research university in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Established in 1821, it is the premier institution of higher learning in the country and one of the most prestigious universities of Ibero-America and the world. The University of Buenos Aires (UBA) was created by a decree of the government of the Province of Buenos Aires in August 1821 and was formally inaugurated with a ceremony held at San Ignacio's Church, constituting the second university founded in the territory of Argentina. It was initially organized into six departments: Letters, Preparatory Studies, Exact Sciences, Medicine, Jurisprudence, and Sacred Sciences.

In 1881, UBA became dependent on the National Government and in 1886 it assumed the organization in Faculties, the first one being: Medical Sciences, Law and Social Sciences, and Exact Sciences.
In its almost two centuries of history, it has become one of the most important public institutions of higher education in Latin America and is currently a national and international reference center for education and vocational training, research and university extension.
