What Universidad Maimónides does

Universidad Maimónides (DBA: UMAI) is a private Argentine university headquartered at Hidalgo 775 in the Caballito neighborhood of Buenos Aires, operating two main faculties — the Faculty of Health Sciences and the Faculty of Humanities, Social Sciences and Business. The institution offers a full academic pathway from technical pregrado programs (nursing, surgical instrumentation, dental prosthetics, radiology, multimedia communication, video game design) through undergraduate degrees (medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, kinesiology, nutrition, biochemistry, law, psychology, journalism, international relations, human resources, physical education, history, music therapy, multimedia technology, video game design, tourism), medical and social science specializations, master's programs (Environmental Management, Geopolitics, Nursing Services Management, Neuroscience-oriented Psychology), and doctoral programs in Odontology. The university also operates a dedicated Escuela de Posgrado y Formación Continua offering diploma programs, workshops, and conferences spanning injectables, ultrasonography, cardiovascular genetics, thanatopraxy, reconstructive surgery, business intelligence, and creative arts, plus on-campus healthcare services (Hospital Odontológico Universitario, Kinesiología, Nutrición) that serve as both clinical training venues and patient-facing service lines.

Delivery relies on a Moodle-based Virtual Campus (maimonidesvirtual.com.ar and formacioncontinua.maimonides.edu) supporting both in-person and an expanding set of fully distance-learning degree programs. The technology stack is conventional LMS infrastructure rather than proprietary IP — no AI/ML capabilities, patents, trademarks, SDKs, MCP servers, or data flywheel mechanics are disclosed. The research footprint comprises six wholly-owned centers: Centro de Ciencias Naturales, Ambientales y Antropológicas (CCNAA), Centro de Ciencias Veterinarias (CCV), Centro de Ciencia, Tecnología y Sociedad (CCTS), Centro de Estudios Biomédicos, Básicos, Aplicados y Desarrollo (CEBBAD), Centro de Investigación Traslacional en Salud (CENITRES), and Centro de Estudios Ambientales (CEA), plus a research ethics committee (CEI).

Revenue is generated primarily through annual tuition — a February matrícula plus 11 monthly installments from March to January — denominated in Argentine pesos, with scholarship support administered by a Scholarship Evaluation Committee. Continuing education diplomas add an installment-based revenue stream (e.g., Business Intelligence and Strategic Leadership at ARS $500,000 total, Thanatopraxia at ARS $1,450,000 total, Cardiovascular Genetics at ARS $652,000), with one program (Ultrasound in Companion Animals) explicitly indexed to monthly IPC inflation. Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer via the institutional website, Virtual Campus, WhatsApp, email inquiry, and on-campus enrollment. Strategic research and clinical training partnerships include CONICET (core), INTA, Medtronic, Wellvet, Sanatorio Las Lomas, and CAME. No parent company, external investor, funding rounds, M&A activity, or regulatory actions are disclosed.
