"I chose Los Andes University because it has an agreement with my faculty and I am going to be able to homologate my classes. I also chose in order to learn Spanish."

Who we are
The laboratory practice imitates the real life

Due to the qualifications, quality and the proportion with the students, the teaching staff is our greatest strength.

Average of 15 students per lecturer

This ratio guarantees the best possible educational process. The fact that 530 of the 1134 teaching staff of the University - 49% - are full-time staff, is relatively exceptional among private universities in Colombia, and it enables many of them to dedicate their entire lives to teaching and research. Given the University´s policy for academic excellence, we can call upon the best professionals in Colombia to become a part of the teaching staff or research staff, in teaching Departments, or in Research Centers.

148 full time teaching staff have doctorates

This fact shows that the teaching staff have a strong interest in research and their permanent training in teaching activities. Through audio-visual support, technical and multimedia programs for teaching, they have arranged to incorporate such tools into their class work.
