Partnership with the International Finance Corporation
The International Finance Corporation (IFC) recently published a case study which highlights the success of Universidad Peruana de Ciencias Aplicadas (UPC). “In its quarter century history, UPC has shown that when institutions of higher education follow a path of continuous improvement and innovation, they can sustain their own growth and help support economic prosperity around them. The university is known not just for its academic reputation but for its high level of digital maturity and its profitable and sustainable business model. This has been fostered through a clear strategy and the continuous support of Laureate International Universities, which acquired UPC in 2004.”
