The Universidade da Coruña is a public higher education institution based in A Coruña, Galicia, Spain. It was established under Law 11/1989, with its statutes approved in 1992. It operates on two campuses, in A Coruña and Ferrol, and focuses on generating, managing and disseminating knowledge through research and teaching in science, technology and professional fields. Its core aim is to serve as a high-quality public service that advances societal well-being through scientific and technological progress within widely accepted ethical standards, while educating citizens who are open, cultured, critical, committed, democratic and solidary. The university emphasizes Galicia's development and its social, cultural and linguistic identity, and seeks integration into the European higher education area with projection into Latin America. To provide ongoing social support, the institution established the Fundación Universidade da Coruña, a private foundation linked to its teaching mission.
