The Public University of Navarre (Basque: Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa; Spanish: Universidad Pública de Navarra), also known by its acronym UPNA or NUP, is a public university created in 1987 by the government of the Spanish autonomous region of Navarre (Spanish: Navarra, Basque: Nafarroa).[2] It has three campuses located in Pamplona and Tudela.[3] Its activity began in 1989.[4]

The main campus is located in Pamplona, at the outskirts of the city, near the CA Osasuna's El Sadar Stadium, and a new campus was opened in Tudela, a city in southern Navarre, for the 2008-09 academic year.[5] The Health Sciences building (Spanish: Ciencias de la Salud) was placed off-campus near the two biggest hospitals of the city.

Currently there are about 10,000 students taking twenty-five different degrees, the most popular of which are Business Administration and several different engineering degrees.

There are also many foreign students taking part of Erasmus programme, International Student Exchange Programs, Virrey Palafox, or other exchange programs.
