PalmaA private university in Costa Rica operating since 2025, Mundae Universidad, has promoted its Nursing degree using the Balearic Government's logo as a collaborating entity. It appeared in its official student recruitment dossier until this Wednesday, while it was removed from the website at the request of the IB-Salut, which claims it knew nothing about it. Mundae has denied this information and has assured that it currently does not use any of the mentioned logos in any document or section of its website, although it did appear in the dossier consulted yesterday by ARA Balears. The university admits that in the past it included the IB-Salut logo by mistake following a one-off collaboration with the Menorca Health Area. It also says that the current relationship with the CGE "is cordial".
The degree or bachelor's program it markets is aimed mostly at Spanish students. In the official student recruitment dossier, it presents various private entities as collaborators, and only two public ones: the Department of Health of the Balearic Islands and the Alt Pened猫s-Garraf Health Consortium. In addition, it adds the official logo of the Government of the Balearic Islands at the end of the document.

IB-Salut says it knew nothing about it
Sources from the IB-Salut ensure that neither the Ministry of Health, nor the Health Service, nor Primary Care have any agreement with Mundae Universidad to train their professionals. According to their explanation, at a certain point they detected that the Government's logo appeared in the university center's advertising and they contacted Mundae to ask for explanations and demand its removal.
The IB-Salut sent a formal communication to the center in which it warned that there was no justification for its logo to appear on this material. Sources from the Health Service point out that Mundae subsequently removed the logo from its website and the rest of the advertising materials, although it had still been included in a dossier that was available to students until Wednesday.
