USF Network Colombia’s membership is growing every year, with over 470 alumni and more than 160 currently enrolled students. Part of this success is due to USF’s fruitful and longstanding partnership with Universidad del Norte, which has produced generations of Colombian Bulls! There are over 40 faculty members who have engaged in research, business, and/or creative endeavors in Colombia. The Network welcomes the 47 students who have studied abroad in Colombia since 2013.
