The University of Murcia (UM) is a one-hundred-year-old institution that can trace its origins back to the thirteenth century. It is an international institution and a reference center for higher education in the Region of Murcia (south-eastern Spain). The UM strives for academic excellence and plays a key role in research, teaching and innovation. At the same time, it is an essential social engine that reaches out through the Mediterranean basin thanks to its international excellence Campus Mare Nostrum (CMN). The UM is also a pioneer in e-government, with its clearly defined digital university strategy. The UM’s academic and cultural activities are undertaken in twenty-one Faculties seventeen of which are located on the Espinardo campus (to the north of the city) and the remainder on La Merced campus in the heart of the city, Health Sciences, in El Palmar and Lorca, and Sport Sciences at the coastal resort of San Javier. Today, the UM has over 30,000 students, some 3,000 researchers/lecturers, and over 1,200 administration staff.

Under this, every school will promote monthly one Sustainable Development Goal to raise awareness of the various goals within the university community and the rest of the region.
