The Universidad Tecnológica de Bolívar (UTB) identifies itself as "an excellent educational project of the Colombian Caribbean region for the World". Located in the city of Cartagena de Indias in the department of Bolivar, Colombian Caribbean region, UTB seeks the realization of a high quality educational program, which, in constant contact with the real world can, in addition to forming high-level human talent, also generate knowledge and intervene and bring new concepts for social and related business transformation.

The Universidad Tecnológica de Bolívar understands that the best way to train complete and competitive professionals in an entrepreneurial university is not only by expanding the number of programs offered, but also by enrichening these programs in the areas of theoretical and empirical research.

From this perspective, the UTB has been conducting strategic planning processes in a systematic way, which enabled the assessment of trends in the various productive sectors at regional, national and international level, against the development of higher education and its development projections in the medium and long term. From these scenarios the University, through processes of collective participation, has formulated and updated its mission, vision and strategic actions, recognizing its entrepreneurial spirit, commitment to research, academic excellence and responsibility in the entrepreneurial, economic and social development of the Colombian Caribbean region.

All these processes have strongly directed the University’s efforts towards an ongoing development towards institutional accreditation, as the UTB is aware of the fact that this represents a recognition and an incentive for the consolidation of an educational project that is at the same time a structural pillar of a broader development project for the Caribbean region and Colombia.

UTB’s mission is to be an institution of education and research with entrepreneurial spirit, where the academic community, students and teachers, businessmen and society, can meet in a proper environment to share a critical, flexible and global educational project, through which they can learn to Know, Do, Live Together and Be, within high academic standards and a sense of social responsibility leading to the improvement of the quality of life of the town and the entire Caribbean region.

UTB’s institutional vision is to become a national reference point for higher education with a global vocation and acting as a strategic partner of the business sector for the economic, human and social development.

The University has strategic allies with various institutions such as:

• The Pontifical University of Valencia
• The University of Girona
• The University of Murcia
• The University of Alcalá
• The Financial Training Centre
• The University of Cincinnati
• Cienfuegos University
