Its history dates back to 1732, when it was created under the name of the Hospice of the Holy Trinity. On August 27, 1827, with the first constitutional government, the school changed its name to Colegio de la Inmaculada Concepción, falling under the responsibility of the state and thus creating the faculties of law, painting, sculpture and architecture. In 1867, it changed its name again to State College. During this period, there was an expansion in research, as well as in the development of new technical programs. Finally, in 1945, the school changed its name for the last time to the University of Guanajuato and in 1994 it was recognized as an autonomous university, free from the government legislature.
