The Institution


Icesi is a private university that was founded in 1979 by local business leaders, who have since contributed significantly to Icesi’s initiatives by providing financial, institutional, and networking support. Since its founding, our University has been systematic in pursuing its mission: The pursuit of learning, discovery, and knowledge and taking action to create a better world.

Our students have the knowledge and competencies necessary to stand out professionally in their disciplines. Icesi is recognized as one of the most important and renowned universities in Colombia due to its rigorous academic standards and its wide and diverse range of undergraduate and graduate programs.
