Centro Universitario de Innovación

At the heart of La Matanza, the Centro Universitario de Innovación (CUDI) pulsates with the energy of thousands of students. The CUDI isn’t just a building. It’s a testament to the power of dreams, a symbol of access to education, and a beacon of hope for the future. Opened in March 2021 amidst a global pandemic, the Centro Universitario de Innovación stands as a testament to the community’s resilience and commitment to education. The CUDI was built with resources from the local government, a bold investment in the future of La Matanza. Over 4,000 students, many fresh from secondary school, along with older students and professionals, fill the halls of the CUDI. They pursue careers in the era of knowledge, studying design, technology, and healthcare. The Centro Universitario de Innovación offers a unique blend of programs from various universities, focusing on cutting-edge technologies and innovation. The University of Buenos Aires (UBA), National University of Hurlingham (UNAHUR), National University of Quilmes (UNQUI), National Technological University (UTN), and National University of José C. Paz (UNPAZ) all contribute to the CUDI’s diverse curriculum. This collaboration allows students to access a wide range of programs without having to travel long distances. Imagine the CUDI as a hub, connecting students with opportunities and empowering them to shape their future. This focus on accessibility has transformed La Matanza into a university capital within Greater Buenos Aires, complemented by the established National University of La Matanza. The CUDI’s impact extends beyond its walls. The municipality supports teacher training in robotics and programming, nurturing a virtuous cycle of education. This commitment to innovation earned La Matanza recognition from UNESCO as a “Learning City”, joining a network of cities dedicated to promoting education. The Centro Universitario de Innovación is more than just a university; it’s a catalyst for change, transforming La Matanza into a “City of Innovation”. The CUDI is a place where dreams are nurtured, skills are honed, and the future is built, one student at a time.
