As digital natives, at the UOC we have always known that transformation means different ways of educating, researching and thinking; that it means being, in every sense, a university without distances.
As a unique institution and a node in a global system, we want to play a part in this future digital transformation: to put ourselves in the shoes of people who are studying, refreshing their skills, and creating tomorrow's world.
Because the future won't wait – it's being created every day.
