The ADEMA university center is considering becoming a private university under the name University of Mallorca (UMAC) or affiliating with Isabel I University. According to Diego González, president of the institution, they favor the former option. "The process is progressing. Our aim is to begin in September 2026. It's a broad project that will be implemented gradually," he says. ADEMA plans to offer eleven new degree programs not currently offered in the Balearic Islands, in areas such as Biomedicine, Sociology, and Architecture, in addition to those it currently offers as an affiliated center of the University of the Balearic Islands (UIB)—the public university has also announced that it will implement Architecture studies. González explains that the institution has the capacity to implement all the degree programs, but that "the bureaucratic process to launch them is not easy." When fully operational, the center aspires to have 3,000 students. The project has the approval of the PP, the party that supports the Balearic Government, which has presented a bill in favor of the University of Mallorca – it has already undergone public consultation. However, not everyone in the cultural sector is satisfied with the text of the law, and the OCB (Catalan Cultural Association) has submitted objections. The organization requests guarantees of respect for the Statute of Autonomy and the official status of Catalan, both in teaching and in the linguistic rights of students and faculty. It also warns that the name 'Universitat de Mallorca' could cause confusion with a public institution and proposes changing its name to clearly indicate its private nature. González asserts that ADEMA (Association of Cultural Entities of Mallorca) has held the trademark for years. "We thought that calling it the University of Mallorca would be appealing, that people would agree, more so than calling it the University of Wisconsin," he says.

The People's Party (PP) registered a bill on Wednesday to create a new private university, promoted by ADEMA, to be called the University of Mallorca. The party requested its urgent processing, arguing that the educational needs of students in the Balearic Islands must be addressed as soon as possible. The PP stated that this procedure follows up on the request submitted to the Balearic Islands Government's Ministry of Education and Universities, which initiated a process that was then transferred to the Ministry of Education, Vocational Training and Sport. The Ministry has already issued the required report necessary to move the process forward. "We support the development of new university projects with the aim of expanding the higher education options in the Islands," the party stated. "It is necessary to offer more academic options to students in the Balearic Islands and thus make it easier for young people to pursue their university studies without having to leave the Autonomous Community," they added. "This helps to reduce the impact of costs stemming from the island factor and encourages young talent to train and settle in the Islands," the PP points out.

The Health Living Lab of the Son Espases University Hospital and the Adema University School have launched a pioneering technological project at the international level which, according to its promoters, marks a milestone in medical-surgical training: it is a haptic (tactile) simulation system)applied to virtual training to treat colorectal cancer so that in the future it can be extrapolated to real interventions in different areas of surgery.
