What is unavarra.es (UPNA)?

Updated

unavarra.es is the official website of the Public University of Navarre (UPNA), a public university in Spain with campuses in Pamplona and Tudela. The site is the main entry point for prospective and current students, researchers, and visitors: it brings together degree programs, international exchange information, research activity, news, and an events calendar. Use it when you need to check what the university offers, find study options, or follow UPNA's academic and institutional activity.

What the site covers

The homepage is organized around a set of highlighted areas ("Áreas destacadas") that lead into the university's main functions:

Area What you'll find
Conocer la Universidad (About the university) Institutional information about UPNA
Internacionalización (Internationalization) International and exchange information
Estudios (Studies) Degree programs and study options
Investigación (Research) Research activity and projects
Sede Electrónica (Electronic office) Administrative procedures, transparency, reporting channel, hiring
Vive la Universidad (Campus life) Student life and participation

The page also surfaces practical student links such as classrooms and timetables, and a "Students" information section. A prominent call invites visitors to "Consult all the degree programs available" and "Study at the UPNA," with a direct path to see degrees.

Who it's for

  • Prospective students deciding what and where to study: start from the degree listings and the "Estudios" area.
  • Current students: use the classrooms and timetables links and the student information section.
  • Researchers and academics: the research area and the news feed cover seminars, doctoral days, and research projects.
  • Visitors and partners: news and the agenda give a picture of current university activity.

News and events

The homepage carries a rolling news section and an agenda of upcoming activities. Recent examples include a doctoral thesis developing a methodology to improve the efficiency of horizontal refrigerated display cabinets in supermarkets, roughly 80 students competing to build algorithms that reduce material waste, and a research seminar on agri-food system governance. The agenda lists dated events such as research seminars, a doctoral day on careers beyond academia, and conferences on care models and chemical-biological contaminants, with locations including the Jerónimo de Ayanz building and the Tudela campus.

This makes the site useful not only for formal study information but also for seeing what is happening on campus in a given week.

Practical notes

  • The site is in English at the address shown, with Spanish-language content and event titles throughout.
  • The homepage links to a Strategic Plan page; no pricing or fee information is stated on the page itself, so costs and admission details should be checked through the studies section rather than assumed.
  • For administrative tasks, the Sede Electrónica area is the relevant entry point.

If your goal is to evaluate UPNA as a study destination, begin with the degree listings and the internationalization section; if you want to gauge the university's current research and public activity, the news and agenda sections give the most immediate view.
