Mission: The University of Girona is a young, dynamic university with a strong personality, which seeks excellence in teaching, research and knowledge transfer (innovation). It is based in the city of Girona and is the university of reference both for the city of Girona and for its territorial and cross-border environment, one of the most dynamic in the country. The UdG actively participates in the progress and development of society through the creation, transmission, dissemination and criticism of science, technology, the humanities, the social sciences and the arts, so that it has become one of the main economic and cultural motors in its environment. From its strong roots in its own territory and culture, the UdG expresses a clear vocation of universality and openness to all traditions, advances and cultures. The University of Girona's strategic plan for 2008-13 defines its mission: "The UdG's mission is the creation and transfer of knowledge, teaching and innovation, with the aim of being, from its roots in the territory, the benchmark in the Pyrenees-Mediterranean Euroregion and a well-positioned institution on a European scale".

Subordinate organizations:
The following data gives a quick reading on the scientific performance in the last years. The research ranking refers to the volume, impact and quality of the institution's research output. The innovation ranking is calculated on the number of patent applications of the institution and the citations that its research output receives from patents. Finally, the societal ranking is based on the number of pages of the institution's website and the number of backlinks and mentions from social networks.
The result of the evaluation of the institution can be compared to obtain a view of the country, the region to which it belongs and the institutions of the world, placing it in their respective positions.
We have divided the scientific output of the institution into 19 large areas of knowledge and the following table shows only the ranks in different territorial domains achieved by the institution in each of the areas. For an institution to have a presence in an area, it is necessary that it exceed in the last year a minimum output threshold equivalent to twice the percentage that this area represents in the world. If you need scientific indicators on these areas visit Scopus and/or SciVal.
