University of Málaga

The city has played a crucial role in UMA's founding: all aspects of the province (citizens, notable figures, and mass media) have been key drivers for the establishment of our University. It all began in 1968 with the development of the "University of Málaga's Friends Association" an organization that advocated for a University in the province by raising awareness on the issue and mobilizing citizens, which finally all led to its founding.

Since 1947, the INTERNATIONAL CENTRE FOR SPANISH at the University of Malaga (CIE-UMA) has been offering courses of the highest quality in Spanish as a foreign language. It is also an accredited centre for the Instituto Cervantes exams.
