Universidad Pontificia Comillas, also referred as Comillas, is a private pontifical university established in 1890 and run by the Society of Jesus. Comillas accepts and endorses the definition of a University set forth in the “Magna Charta Universitatum”, signed in Bologna in 1988: “an academic community that, in a rigorous and critical manner, contributes to the protection and development of human dignity and cultural heritage through research, teaching and providing a diverse range of services to local, national and international communities”. It is involved in a number of academic exchange programmes, work practice schemes and international projects with over 200 institutions of higher education in Europe, Latin America, North America and Asia.
