The National University of Northwestern Buenos Aires (UNNOBA) was founded in 2002. Its history can be traced back to 1990 with the establishment of the Jun¨ªn Regional University Centre. A year later in 1991 the Pergamino Regional University Centre opened and in 2002 these two institutions merged together to form UNNOBA.

The university¡¯s main campus is located in Jun¨ªn, a city in northern Buenos Aires, Argentina. There is a second campus in Pergamino city, which is home to the university¡¯s Biotechnology Centre and the School of Agricultural, Environmental and Natural Sciences.

The university plays a leading role in the region of Jun¨ªn as it hosts the Buenos Aires Research and Transfer Centre. UNNOBA is also home to a number of other centres, institutes, and laboratories that are used to produce innovative research. Throughout the year the university engages in research projects to contribute to the development of society.

Academically the university is divided into three schools: The School of Agricultural, Environmental and Natural Sciences, The School of Economic and Legal Sciences, and The School of Technology. Within each school are a number of departments offering specialised courses for both undergraduate and graduate students. There is also the Institute of Human Development, which offers degrees in bioimaging production, nursing, and physical education.

Since 2007 UNNOBA has developed partnerships with international universities to give its students the opportunity to study abroad. Students can choose to participate in the academic exchange programme in countries such as Brazil, Chile, Germany, and Switzerland. The university collaborates with its partner ÖйúAƬ institutions around the world to exchange knowledge and research.
