How Prospective Students Can Find UIS Undergraduate and Graduate Programs on uis.edu.co

Updated

On the UIS website (uis.edu.co), prospective students can reach program information through the Undergraduate programs and Graduate programs sections listed on the homepage. The same homepage area also links to PREUIS courses and Language course pages. For a more targeted search, you can start from a specific faculty — the homepage highlights the Faculty of Physical-Mechanical Engineering as an example — and browse its program listings.

Where the program links appear

The UIS homepage groups its academic offerings in a block headed "A New Space for Great Ideas." Within that block, the visible entry points are:

  • Undergraduate programs — for bachelor's-level study
  • Graduate programs — for postgraduate study
  • PREUIS courses — pre-university preparation courses
  • Language course — language instruction
  • Monetary Rights — a separate listed item in the same block

These labels are the fastest route from the homepage to academic offerings. Because the homepage is a landing page, the exact program list sits behind these links rather than on the homepage itself.

Step-by-step: finding a program

  1. Open the homepage. Go to uis.edu.co. The academic block appears on the main page.
  2. Choose your level. Select Undergraduate programs if you are looking for a bachelor's degree, or Graduate programs for a master's or doctoral-level offering.
  3. Narrow by faculty if you already know your field. The homepage also surfaces faculty pages, such as the Faculty of Physical-Mechanical Engineering, which list that faculty's undergraduate and graduate programs together.
  4. Check preparatory or language routes if relevant. If you need pre-university preparation or language study before or alongside a degree, use the PREUIS courses and Language course links.
  5. Verify details on the program page. Confirm the program name, level, and faculty on the destination page before relying on it for an application decision.

Expected result: you land on a program listing or faculty page that names the specific programs offered, rather than a general news or institutional page.

Common sticking points

  • The homepage is news-heavy. Much of the front page is institutional news (for example, items about the Santander Governor's Office, HUS and UIS collaboration, or the rector joining the ASCUN board). The academic links sit in a separate block, so scan for "A New Space for Great Ideas" rather than the news feed.
  • Program details are one click deeper. The homepage confirms that undergraduate and graduate sections exist but does not list every program itself; expect to click through.
  • Faculty pages mix levels. A faculty page may present undergraduate and graduate programs side by side, so check the level label on each program.
  • No pricing or admission requirements are stated on the homepage. The homepage does not publish tuition, fees, or application deadlines, so treat those as details to confirm on the specific program or admissions page rather than assuming them.

A practical example

Suppose you are interested in engineering. You would open uis.edu.co, go to the Faculty of Physical-Mechanical Engineering entry, and read its undergraduate and graduate program lists to identify the specific degree you want. If you need to strengthen your preparation first, you would return to the homepage block and check the PREUIS courses or Language course pages. This keeps your search anchored to official UIS pages instead of third-party summaries.
