University of Biobío (Spanish: Universidad del Biobío) is a university in Chile. It is part of the Chilean Traditional Universities. The University of Biobío is the heir of the tradition of public higher education in the Biobío Region. Its roots go back to the creation of the Technical University of the State (TUS) on April 9, 1947, and to the Ñuble Campus of the University of Chile. Then the Concepción Campus of the TUS and the campus from Chillán, derived in the Biobío University and the Chillán Professional Institute, originating what today is called the UBB. With offices in Concepción and Chillán, it offers 35 undergraduate degrees and two bachelor programs, with over 12,000 students and almost 70 percent of its professors hold masters or PhD grade.
