PRINCIPIOS
La autonomía, respecto del Estado o de cualquier otra estructura de poder y la libertad académica de cátedra, es el fundamento básico de la Universidad pública. Así entendida, a autonomía es inseparable de la democracia y del ejercicio de la soberanía nacional. Se complementa con el co-gobierno docente-estudiantil, que reúne la voluntad general de los dos gremios más importantes que le dan razón de ser a la educación superior, con el valioso apoyo de los trabajadores administrativos. La comunidad universitaria rechaza toda forma de intervención del poder central en su seno, más aún cualquier forma de gobierno de la educación superior pública que no emerja del ejercicio de la autonomía Universitaria y el Cogobierno docente-estudiantil.El Estatuto orgánico define a la Universidad Boliviana con los siguientes atributos: es nacional, científica, democrática, popular y anti-imperialista, en un proceso dialéctico de vinculación y mutua influencia entre la Universidad y la Sociedad.
