The Real Colegio Complutense at

Universidad Complutense de Madrid
, which established it in cooperation with Harvard University.

History

The RCC was founded as a joint cooperative institution to foster intellectual and scientific interaction between

Visiting Scholars at the University of Bologna
. In November 1990, the Dean of the Universidad Complutense de Madrid at the time and the then-president of Harvard,
Derek Curtis Bok
, signed an alliance to create the Real Colegio Complutense. The King of Spain inaugurated the building in 1993 and the agreement was extended in 2009.

RCC Building

Members

The RCC accord is the only one of its sort ever to have been approved by Harvard. The institution is directed jointly by the

President of Harvard
and the Rector of Complutense University. The RCC academic and advisory councils include outstanding members from both universities.

In the last decade, the RCC has incorporated new Partner Universities

Universidad de Sevilla
, each of them represented by official delegates.

As of 2024, the director is Daniel Pablo de la Cruz Sánchez Mata,[3] full professor at UCM and faculty associate at the Harvard University Herbaria. In the period 2012-2021, the director was Prof. José Manuel Martínez Sierra,[4] Jean Monnet ad personam Professor for the Study of European Union Law and Government.[5]

Mission

Every year, the RCC offers research grants[6] to a select number of Spanish scholars who conduct their research at Harvard as visiting scholars. It also offers a number of graduate fellowships to Spanish students who attend the different graduate schools at Harvard. In addition to this, faculty and researchers from the partner universities and other affiliated centers are eligible to become RCC Fellows, enjoying the same privileges as Harvard's non-tenured Faculty.

The RCC sponsors a number of research projects and programs that cross over different fields of study, including experimental and social sciences, architecture, health, engineering, education, communication and humanities. The relevance of RCC Fellows, Associates and Alumni/ae, as well as their partnerships with local scholars and the Faculty of Harvard University, allow these projects to generate international knowledge networks and to promote intellectual exchange in a multidisciplinary framework.

As part of this framework, the institution hosts academic lectures and scientific events for an open audience, including Harvard professors and students.

Some notable RCC fellows include:

Mark C. Elliott, Pol Antràs, Iñaki Ábalos, Alberto Abadie, Luis Viceira
.

Collaborations

The RCC has signed several agreements with Spanish and International Institutions to organize summer seminars and workshops at the center. These institutions include the

Universidad Autónoma de Madrid and the Centro de Investigaciones Sociológicas
.
