Social Commitment

As an educational company, PROEDUCA promotes culture through theatrical and cinematographic initiatives and bets wholeheartedly on editorials, culture, research, educational technology, and the job placement of students.

Social responsibility orients the university’s politics towards topics such as:

  • Making access to university studies possible for any person who, with the adequate previous education, wants to eliminate the cultural and social barriers of distance, timetables, and location that impede them.
  • Implementing teaching and research resources through development of emerging technologies in such a way that it is possible to offer a high level education, paying special attention to technology that drives cultural, technical, and social change.

Corporate Social Responsibility
