“This building doesn’t look particularly old,” you might think. And you’d be right. While the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria (ULPGC) itself has a rich history, this particular branch in Fuerteventura is housed in a more modern setting. The university as a whole wasn’t established until 1989. It was the culmination of years of petitions and a desire for greater educational access for the people of Gran Canaria. What started as predominantly a technical university, incorporating the former “Universidad Politécnica de Canarias”, has blossomed into a multidisciplinary institution. The ULPGC now boasts a diverse range of departments. These include fields like engineering, health sciences, humanities, and more. The commitment to broader education is reflected in its presence here in Fuerteventura. This branch focuses on providing greater access to healthcare education. This is vital for the island’s well-being. The ULPGC’s story is one of ambition. It represents a dedication to providing accessible, high-quality education, a mission that continues to this day in Fuerteventura and beyond.
