About Universidad Nacional de Tucuman
Basic information and contact details for Universidad Nacional de Tucuman
Universidad Nacional de Tucuman was founded in 1914, to serve Tucumán, the most densely populated of Argentina’s provinces.
It has 13 faculties and seven schools, including: agronomy animal science and veterinary medicine; architecture and urban planning; film, video and television; and philosophy and letters. It also has three museums, in arts and culture, natural sciences and archaeology.
Each faculty runs a student centre, which coordinates academic support, cultural events and student representation. Student clubs are often linked to faculties, too, as a way for students to engage with their subject – and each other – outside formal classes. For example, the School of Exact Sciences and Technology runs a robotics club, which brings together students from programming, electronics and mechanics degrees.
The university sports centre provides a gym, as well as courts for 11-a-side football, five-a-side football, basketball, padel tennis and volleyball. Students are able to join sports and athletics teams.
The university owns dormitories and holiday cabins in the nearby Yungas nature reserve. These are primarily used for staff and summer programmes, but students can ask about availability. However, most students live in private, off-campus rental accommodation, connecting with other UNT students to arrange flatshares. Two university dining halls offer general menus, as well as gluten-free, vegetarian and vegan options.
