- 25 agosto, 2025

Yurani Arango David, Laboratory Coordinator of the institution, paid an official visit to the Neiva campus of Fundación Universitaria María Cano with the aim of continuing to consolidate quality standards in university laboratories and promoting academic development in this region of the country, through the creation of spaces for students to apply their knowledge in service to the community.
The day included a meeting with faculty and students, where initiatives aimed at unifying processes and improving both the infrastructure and equipment of the laboratories were presented, in line with the institution’s educational quality goals. Additionally, a space for dialogue was created to gather firsthand feedback from the academic community about the upcoming equipment and the technical adjustments needed to ensure excellence in training.
This visit emphasizes Fundación Universitaria María Cano’s commitment to the continuous improvement of practical learning spaces, which are essential for the scientific, technological, and professional development of students. Coordination among the different campuses reinforces the institution’s mission to offer high-quality education, tailored to the needs of the academic community and aligned with national and international standards.
The importance of having laboratories and practical learning environments in higher education is fundamental to ensuring comprehensive and high-quality training. These spaces not only allow students to apply theoretical knowledge but also help them develop technical and practical skills essential for their professional performance. In health programs, in particular, practical experience in laboratories and clinical simulators is crucial, as it allows future professionals to face real-life situations and make informed decisions. The improvement and unification of these spaces across all Fundación Universitaria María Cano campuses ensures that students receive top-level education, aligned with the quality standards necessary to face the challenges of the labor market and contribute to the advancement of public health and social well-being.
