The professor of English Philology Eva Alcón Soler has become the first woman who holds the position of rector of the Universitat Jaume I in Castelló in its 27 years of history. In the inauguration ceremony, the new vice-rectors, the general secretary and the manager, who will be part of the new Board of Directors of the UJI, have also been appointed. The president of the Valencian regional government, Ximo Puig, chaired this event, which was also attended by the minister of Education, Research, Culture and Sport, Vicent Marzà; the mayor of Castelló de la Plana, Amparo Marco; the former rector, Vicent Climent; the honorary rector Francesc Michavila; the president of the Board of Trustees, José Luis Breva; the rector of the Universitat de València, María Vicenta Mestre, and the rector of the Universitat Politècnica de València, Francisco Mora.

On the other hand, the president of the Valencian regional government, Ximo Puig, has expressed his willingness to find “a formula that will soon satisfy the urgent need of the UJI and the society of Castelló to finish the facilities of the Faculty of Health Sciences, so that it can be tendered before the end of the year and the construction can begin in 2019”.
