University of Havana

The University of Havana (UH) is a university in Havana, the capital of the Republic of Cuba, located in the Vedado district. The university, which was founded on January 5, 1728, is the oldest in Cuba and one of the first in the Americas (the oldest, National University of San Marcos, was founded in Lima in 1551). Founded as a religious institution, the University of Havana now has 15 faculties (colleges) on its Havana campus as well as distance learning centers throughout Cuba.

Cuba's most prestigious university has over 25 majors, 17 academic departments, and 14 research centers in economics, sciences, social sciences, and humanities. Cuba is clearly coming out of a rough patch. It is a beautiful country with a lot to offer visitors, but it is not without its problems. Students who choose the University of Havana must be aware of the consequences of its history, such as a lack of student clubs and organizations to prevent student uprisings. Studying here will undoubtedly be beneficial!
