Meet our Director

I am Fabiola Monje, National Director of Internationalization at UPB, recognized as the best private university in Bolivia, with campuses in Cochabamba, La Paz, and Santa Cruz.

Founded in 1993, we offer a growing number of courses in English, such as the "Latin American Young Leadership" (LEAP) program for business and the "Latin American Research Semester" (Laureate) for engineering students.

We have two faculties: FACED y FIA.

Undergraduate students are required to take the TOEFL before graduating, while this requirement does not apply to graduate students. International students, meanwhile, have opportunities to travel, learn about Bolivian culture, and enjoy its cuisine.
