| Abstract (English): | This essay describes the curricular and administrative transformation of the Nursing Program at Universidad de Antioquia since its founding in 1950, identifying progress and challenges up to current times in professional formation, institutional management, and care as disciplinary knowledge. The information has been organized by decades, which evidences historical processes, recognizes change patterns, and highlights relevant milestones more clearly, facilitating a critical analysis of academic evolution in long-term contexts. The institutional trajectory reveals an adaptive capacity regarding social and educational challenges. The most significant milestones include the transition from School to Faculty (1980), the highquality accreditation from the National Ministry of Education (1999, 2006, 2013, and 2022), incorporation of high technology to teaching (2017), creation of a PhD degree in Nursing (2010), and strengthened work with international networks (as of 2022). These processes have consolidated a critical, humanistic, and socially relevant training in students and graduates. The recovery of this institutional memory strengthens the disciplinary identity and allows projecting a transformative nursing program into the future, committed to academic excellence, social justice, and educational innovation. The historical overview offers tools to address contemporary challenges in health and education, and reaffirms the Faculty’s role as a national benchmark in higher education in nursing.

| Abstract (Spanish): | Este ensayo describe la transformación curricular y administrativa del programa de Enfermería de la Universidad de Antioquia desde su fundación en 1950, identificando avances y desafíos hasta la actualidad en la formación profesional, la gestión institucional y el cuidado como saber disciplinar. La información se organizó por décadas, lo que permitió evidenciar procesos históricos, reconocer patrones de cambio y destacar hitos relevantes con mayor claridad, facilitando un análisis crítico de la evolución académica en contextos de largo plazo. La trayectoria institucional revela una capacidad adaptativa frente a los desafíos sociales y educativos. Entre los hitos más significativos se encuentran la transición de Escuela a Facultad (1980), la acreditación de alta calidad por el Ministerio de Educación Nacional (1999, 2006, 2013 y 2022), la incorporación de alta tecnología en la enseñanza (2017), la creación del Doctorado en Enfermería (2010) y el fortalecimiento de trabajo con redes internacionales (a partir de 2022). Estos procesos han consolidado una formación crítica, humanista y socialmente pertinente en estudiantes y egresados. La recuperación de esta memoria institucional fortalece la identidad disciplinar y permite proyectar a futuro, una enfermería transformadora, comprometida con la excelencia académica, la justicia social y la innovación educativa. El recorrido histórico ofrece herramientas para enfrentar los retos contemporáneos en salud y educación, y reafirma el papel de la Facultad como referente nacional en la formación superior en enfermería.

| Abstract (Portuguese): | Este ensaio descreve a transformação curricular e administrativa do programa de Enfermagem da Universidade de Antioquia desde sua fundação em 1950, identificando avanços e desafios até o presente na formação profissional, na gestão institucional e no cuidado como domínio disciplinar. As informações foram organizadas por década, o que nos permitiu destacar processos históricos, reconhecer padrões de mudança e destacar marcos relevantes com maior clareza, facilitando uma análise crítica da evolução acadêmica em contextos de longo prazo. A trajetória institucional revela uma capacidade adaptativa diante dos desafios sociais e educacionais. Entre os marcos mais significativos estão a transição de Escola para Faculdade (1980), a acreditação de alta qualidade pelo Ministério da Educação Nacional (1999, 2006, 2013 e 2022), a incorporação de tecnologia avançada no ensino (2017), a criação do Doutorado em Enfermagem (2010) e o fortalecimento do trabalho com redes internacionais (a partir de 2022). Esses processos consolidaram uma formação crítica, humanística e socialmente relevante para estudantes e graduados. A recuperação dessa memória institucional fortalece a identidade disciplinar e nos permite projetar um futuro transformador para a enfermagem, comprometido com a excelência acadêmica, a justiça social e a inovação educacional. Este panorama histórico oferece ferramentas para enfrentar os desafios contemporâneos em saúde e educação e reafirma o papel da Faculdade como referência nacional no ensino superior de enfermagem.
