Universidad de San Carlos de Guatemala

Guatemala has one state university, the Universidad de San Carlos (USAC), which is autonomous under the Constitution (art. 82); every other university is private. The Consejo de la Enseñanza Privada Superior (CEPS) authorises new private universities and oversees their academic standards (art. 86), and private universities are free to create their own faculties and programmes (art. 85). CEPS's public register lists the universities, their faculties, schools, institutes and regional centres, and the programmes under each — including USAC's, which are shown as the register shows them.

A programme is counted once per university however many faculties or regional centres list it. The register gives no closing date, so it does not say whether a programme is still taught or admitting students; the level, year of creation and length are as CEPS records them (a year that is not a plausible year is left blank, never corrected), and the register mixes degrees with diplomas, short courses and pre-university programmes.

48 of the 261 entries below repeat a programme that another faculty or centre of the university also lists.
