Universidad de Lima

The Universidad de Lima is ready to welcome back its students. After two years, students will return to a renovated campus with a biosafety protocol focused on health care, which allows the development of an educational model that combines in-person with online learning. This blended and hybrid model will be safe, gradual and flexible, since it will adapt to the circumstances that may arise and to the characteristics of the subjects. Inquiries from applicants and participants of the International Exchange Program on this process of returning to in-person classes have been answered by the International Relations and Internationalization Office via e-mail ([email protected]).

This new phase coincides with the commemoration of the Universidad de Lima’s 60th anniversary celebration and with the campus renovation, which today houses new environments that have been designed according to the latest technological, architectural and environmental care trends. These buildings are the first results of a master plan that will guide the growth and continuous improvement of the campus for the next 30 years. The innovations include the Recreation, Wellness and Student Life Center, with facilities and services that enrich students’ cultural, academic and sporting life, as well as rest and recreation areas.
