Presentation

Created 55 years ago, the University of Piura began its work thanks to donations from families, companies and national and international institutions that believe in our educational and decentralized mission.  

To continue on this path, we decided to create an investment fund, based on the allocation of a percentage of our annual income that, added to our fundraising actions, can generate a portfolio of long-term assets that contribute to innovation, strategic projection and financial sustainability of the university. 

Part of you at UDEP

Together, with the Investment Fund as our financial strength, we will continue to forge bright futures for all, building a stronger, more equitable nation and developing Better People, Better Professionals.
