Universitat Oberta de Catalunya
La UOC és una universitat innovadora, arrelada a Catalunya i oberta al món, que forma les persones al llarg de la vida contribuint al seu progrés i al de la societat, alhora que duu a terme recerca sobre la societat del coneixement. El seu model educatiu es basa en la personalització i l'acompanyament de l'estudiant mitjançant l'e-learning.
L'activitat de recerca, innovació; i transferència de la UOC està desenvolupada per més de 400 investigadors i s'organitza en 43 grups d'R+I vinculats a un estudi o a un dels dos centres de recerca de la Universitat: l'IN3 i l'eLearn Center. Entre aquests, 26 grups han estat reconeguts per la Generalitat de Catalunya en la darrera convocatòria del 2014.
