Universidad de Córdoba was established in 1962 in Montería by Departmental
Ordinance No. 6 and officially registered in 1964 by Governmental Decree No.
319. Law No. 37 of 3 August 1966 conferred to the university the status of
Decentralized Autonomous Entity. However, the university was firmly established
only in 1970, after approval by the State Council. The foundation of the
university is credited to the bacteriologist Elías Bechara Zainúm (1920-2013),
who pushed the project and was appointed first director of the university in
March 1964. Classes started on 6 April 1964 in rooms provided by Colegio
Nacional José María Córdoba, with two Faculties (Agronomy; Veterinary and
Zootechnical Medicine) and one School (Topography). The university was relocated
in 1968 in the New York estate, which had been purchased in 1965. The university
is now made of eight Faculties: Education and Humanities, Veterinary and
Zootechnical Medicine, Engineering, Basic Sciences, Agricultural Sciences,
Health Sciences, and Economical Sciences
The flag of the university is horizontally divided green-coffee brown. Green
represents the prosperous growth of vegetal species, and, as far as cattle is
concerned, of the species improved by scientific intervention. Coffee brown
represents the fertility of the soil.

I am not exactly sure about its design. Based on pictures, it seems that flag
has diagonal stripes.
Zoltan Horvath, 18 January 2014
I guess the flag has diagonal stripes, but I haven't seen any further
information, so for now.

And the obverse [is seen]
here, but again there are people in the way.

The Colegio Mayor de Cultura Femenina de Cundinamarca was
established by law #45 in 1945. It became an Universitary
institution in 1981 and was granted its current name by law #91
in 1993.
The flag of the institution was prescribed by 'acuerdo' #027 in
1985. It seesm to be horizontally divided green-white-red. The
image on the source quoted below shows the upper strip partially
white, but this must be a mistake. Once again, confirmation of
the true flag design is required.

At <www.unicundi.edu.co>
there is the official Coat of Arms of the Universidad de
Cundinamarca (Cundinamarca University) and an
isotype. I think that the flag of the UDEC (acronym of
the University) is the same flag as the Cundinamarca
Department, but with the UDEC Coat of Arms in the center.
Jairo Alonso Méndez Méndez, 7 October 2005
"Universidad de Cundinamarca" (UDEC) was recognized
on 30 December 1992 by the Ministry of National Education (Decree
No. 19530), succeeding, as a university, "Instituto
Universitaria de Cundinamarca" (ITUC), recognized on 19
December 1969 by the Ministry of National Education (Decree No.
045).
The flag of UDEC, as shown graphically and described on the UDEC
website, is white with the shield of UDEC in the middle.
White represents the light that enlightens and guide us, as
presented in the motto of UDEC, "Ex umbra in solem" (in
Latin, "From darkness to light"). White also represents
the purity of thought, ethics, equity, loyalty, integrity,
obedience, dignity, eloquence and triumph, characteristics of the
UDEC community.
The shield of UDEC, placed in the middle of the flag represents
the commitment to permanently unite in the academic and
scientific development the cultural tradition, inclusion, social
projection and transparent governance to the service of the
community.
The flag is one of the most representative symbols of UDEC, used
in graduation ceremonies, inauguration of academic events and
commemorations.
The graduates of UDEC shall take the oath on the flag. The flag
shall be half-staffed after the death of students, professors or
administrators of UDEC, and may cover their coffin.
The shield of UDEC is oval, with, on a golden background, a sun,
symbol of life and source of all kind of existence, surrounded by
15 points representing the 15 provinces forming the Department of
Cundinamarca. as a symbol of cultural tradition, inclusion,
social projection and transparent governance to the service of
the community, contrasting with the green disk forming the center
of the shield and the green border framing it.
Gold represents wealth, strength, nobleness, faith, constancy,
the sun and fire.
Green represents life strength, the natural environment, work,
growth, serenity, abundance, victory and immortality. It is the
colour of permanent production.
The sun is a symbol of life, eternity, greatness, with the green
center meaning growth and future. Its location in the middle of
the shield recalls us the commitment to achieve our dreams and
reach our objectives. In the center of the sun is a stylized map
of the department, outlined with the colours of the flag of the
department (blue, yellow and red), recalling the origin of the
UDEC. The green border represents our field protected by
discipline, inflexibility and scientific knowledge.
A scroll placed under the shield bears the motto "Ex umbra
in solem", in Latin, "From darkness to light",
which can be philosophically extended to "From ignorance to
knowledge".

This is the former emblem of UDEC, possibly placed on a flag,
but both the emblem and flag have clearly been superseded by the
current symbols.
