This list records the Rectors that the University of Granada has had, from the date of its foundation to the present day.
The sources for the compilation of this index are, fundamentally, the University of Granada Senate Minute Books kept in our Archive, together with other documents, such as the Account Books or the Call to Senate, among others.
The list included by Montells y Nadal in his "Historia de la Universidad de Granada" has also been used as a source, although several errors have been detected in it, which have been corrected by cross-checking with the above-mentioned documents, while at the same time it has been extended from the date on which the author finalised it to the present day.
We hope that this research work will be of use to researchers interested in the history of our institution, and in the history of university education in general.
The list has been divided into centuries to make it easier to read.
In the following link you can find the RECTORS GALLERY where you can find the portraits of the Rectors of the University of Granada from 1847 to 2016.
