Adventist University of the Plata

Adventist University of the Plata in Spanish: Universidad Adventista del Plata is a private Christian coeducational university in Libertador San Martín, Entre Ríos, Argentina, founded in 1898.

The University began as a small rural training school which later became known as Colegio Adventista del Plata (Adventist School of the Plata). After being given official recognition by CoNEAU in the 1990s and the signing of a decree by President Eduardo Duhalde in 2002, it became the ''Universidad Adventista del Plata''. In 1994, its medical school was founded.

The Adventist University of the Plata is part of the Seventh-day Adventist education system, the world's second largest Christian school system. Academic activities take place on a campus covering 18 hectares. It operates mainly from March to December, with post-doctoral theology courses offered during January–February of each year.

The facilities include laboratories, classrooms, multimedia services and conference rooms that are used both for classes and in the summer courses. The University has a large library that includes more than 60,000 volumes, Internet access and a special library with magazines (mostly scientific journals). The University runs an exchange program with partners in several national and foreign universities. The Library also hosts the Centre for Educational Technology and Self-learning, equipped for research work, plus an auditorium that can seat 200 guests, and the Ellen White Research Center.

The sports complex includes a tennis court, a beach volleyball court, a swimming pool and an indoor gymnasium in which organised recreational activities are carried out. The institution also has an FM transmitter, a TV studio and recording studios, part of the Communications Department.

Enrollment for the year 2019 totaled 3000 students. Since the Argentine economic crisis (1998–2002), the number of foreign students has increased abruptly owing to the devaluation of the Argentine peso, making UAP one of the most culturally diverse universities in South America, totalling 36% in 2019.

On May 7, 2015, it was announced that UAP had begun accreditation procedures before the CoNEAU with the aim of opening a School of Dentistry by the year 2017. Provided by Wikipedia
