History
The first reference of Universitat de Girona references to the Escola Normal de Mestres and, specially, the initiative during the 1960s decade to recover university level studies in Girona. During this decade, the Col·legi Universitari de Girona and the Escola Politècnica Superior are created, which depend on the already founded universities UAB and UPC, respectively. Later, the Estudi General is restarted, with the available studies of Humanities, Economics and Social science. Finally, on 1991, an autonomic government decree creates the new and current Universitat de Girona.

“Social history might be defined negatively as the history of a people with the politics left out.”
—G.M. (George Macaulay)
“Tell me of the height of the mountains of the moon, or of the diameter of space, and I may believe you, but of the secret history of the Almighty, and I shall pronounce thee mad.”
