The Senior Citizens' University ended the academic year 2013/2014 with a closing ceremony that was held on 19 June in the Auditorium. The rector of the UJI, Vicent Climent, presided over the ceremony accompanied by the academic director of the Senior Citizens' University, Salvador Cabedo; the programme coordinator, Pilar Escuder, and Elsa González Esteban, lecturer at the Department of Philosophy and Sociology , who was commissioned to deliver the inaugural lecture entitled "The construction of present: intergenerational ethics".

Climent stressed the importance of active and critical participation of older people in research, training and cultural revitalization processes within the university community. "Each year, the potential of this segment of population to contribute to social progress is evident. Therefore, there is an urgent need to articulate the space needed for the contributions of older people to be made effective and enjoy the consideration they deserve", he stated.

This academic year 2013/2014, the Senior Citizens' University has had 953 students enrolled and 95 faculty members have participated in teaching. Both undergraduate and graduate students have conducted 101 research papers and 32 students have presented their final projects.
