History

[edit]

UADE was founded in 1957 by members of the Cámara Argentina de Sociedades Anónimas as the Instituto Superior de Estudios de la Empresa. Its activities began in the building of Belgrano Av. 687 under the direction of Dr. Jacobo Wainer. 338 business executives enrolled. The first class was delivered by Dr. Anwar Obeid. At the end of that year, the Institute became the Argentina Foundation for Advanced Business Studies. Around 500 business leaders completed the course in 1958 and the following year, at the Plaza Hotel in Buenos Aires, the course for 1959 was opened. In the context of the Law 14,557 of 1958 authorizing the operation of private universities in the country, the Chamber of Corporations decided to create the UNIVERSIDAD ARGENTINA DE LA EMPRESA, whose statutes were approved by that institution on June 7, 1963, and the National Executive Power on August 27 of that year.[7]

In 1963, the first degrees were offered in areas of special interest for business: "Marketing," "Costs", "Finance and Organisation", "Organisation of Production" and "Industrial Relations" . In 1964 other degrees were added, such as "Business Applied Statistics", "Market Research", "Public Relations", "Management Techniques" and "Production Engineering and Construction Organization."

In 1968, the Universidad Argentina de la Empresa joined the Council of Rectors of Private Universities (CRUP), after Law 17,604 passed in that year.

In 1984, the main building at Lima St. 717 was inaugurated and, subsequently, in 1992, 1993, 1997, and 1998 new buildings were added to create the current building complex on Lima St. In 2000, the Faculty and Alumni Club was added in an annex building on Chile St. In 2003, the School of Management was opened on Libertad St. 1340. In 2005, the UADE University Residence was opened, which is capable of housing 105 people.

In 2008, the Urban Campus UADE was opened. The campus includes a residence hall, a model library, a cultural and exhibition centre, a sports facility, and a microstadium with capacity for 1,200 people, which with the 181 classrooms and laboratories account for more than 75,000 square metres (810,000 sq ft).

UADE Auditorium (Aula Magna)

The UADE Labs were set up in May 2010. This is a building of 9000 m2 which is presented to national and regional level as the first integrated university laboratory building in the country. In it, students in 51 undergraduate and graduate programs will attend 60,000 hours of practice and research annually.[8]
