Abstract
This article is based on the reflection on the place of superior knowledge in the University, which connects with the proper meaning of this social institution, which is the search for truth. The superior knowledge, linked to the deep knowledge of the reality, its search, conservation and diffusion, are own and almost exclusive tasks of the universities. They are the ones who, with their different activities and discoveries, advance our knowledge of things and of man. The article ends by emphasizing the importance of returning to the aims of the university. As well, the article pretends to offer a complete view of its essential features through a teleological approach to education, the unitary character that must be present in people, and the study of tradition as an accumulation of erudition and culture
