Since the year 2000, a Bachelor's Degree in Physical Education has been carried out and in 2009 an unprecedented program in Argentina, the Diploma in Sports Management, was created from an initiative of the director and graduates of said career. This diploma has 24 dictated editions and 400 professionals trained in sports management tools and skills. Since this degree, field work, research and publications on the specialty have also been generated. In 2021, the commitment to these disciplines is accentuated from the creation and implementation of a new Bachelor's Degree in Sports Management. UBP is a fully accredited university in Argentina.
