The Autonomous University of Baja California Sur (in Spanish: Universidad Autónoma de Baja California Sur, UABCS) is a Mexican public university based in the state of Baja California Sur.

Its library holds over 42,000 volumes.[1]

The university was created by Ángel César Mendoza Arámburo, the Governor of Baja California Sur, whose bill was published into law on 31 December 1975.[3] Tomas Balarezo Cota was named the first rector by the university council on 2 February 1976.[3] He was replaced by Rubén Cardoza Macías in 1978.[4]

UABCS opened an extension campus in Guerrero Negro in 1995 under Jesús Druk González's term as rector, offering degrees in economics and agricultural engineering in its first year.[5]
