The University Centre of South Iceland (UCSI, Háskólafélag Suðurlands) is owned by thirteen municipalities in South Iceland. It was founded in 2007 with the aim of improving the quality of life in the region, especially with regards to access to tertiary education, and science and research activities in the area. The UCSI works closely with universities and research institutions. Recently, it coordinated the establishment of the first Geopark in Iceland (www.katlageopark.is) and is now working with local municipalities and Matis, an Icelandic Food and Biotech R&D Company, www.matis.is/english/ ) in developing a food lab in the region. UCSI has a partnership with South Iceland Marketing Office (www.south.is) and The Institute of University of Iceland Study Centres (www.hi.is/en/study_centres) in developing educational tourism. These projects have all been funded partly by the the Growth Agreement Project for the South Region of Iceland, a project administered by the Icelandic Regional Development Institute (www.byggdastofnun.is/english) and the Development Center of South Iceland (www.sudur.is/sidur/english).
