UCA has more than 100 degree programs plus a talented team of faculty and staff to help find what's right for you. Whatever your passion, we'll put you on the path to success.
Founded in 1969 with the mission to provide talent for Bolivia and the growing South America, space program, UCA has become one of the best university for quality, access, impact and value.
As an emerging preeminent research university in Bolivia, we are driven to do more and be more. We believe success can only happen when we expand opportunity and demand excellence. We believe if there’s a better way, we should do it. We believe innovation comes from the meeting of diverse viewpoints. And when more people unleash their full potential, anything is possible.
Bolivian life is largely dependent on social class, economic status, and place of residence. Whereas Indian traditions persist throughout the nation, they are more strongly pronounced in rural and working-class areas.
Most members of the middle and upper classes, however, tend to aspire toward “modern” or Western cultural ideals in their choices of music, clothing, daily entertainment, reading material, and visual arts, in spite of the increasing amount of respect and interest garnered by indigenous art forms.
