ABSTRACT The movement of the Cordova University Reform in Argentina, after a century of its proclamation, is an unavoidable reference when approaching the theme of the function and social projection of the Universities, specially the Cuban one. The purpose of the current work is carrying out a critical analysis of that movement’s significance, transcendence and force in the context of Cuban contemporary university, emphasizing in the university extension process in the Cuban revolutionary medical education. An exhaustive bibliographic and documental review on the treated theme was carried out using the historical-logical method that allowed discussing the main landmarks of the historical development of that reforming process.  The author considers that movement has an special connotation in the referred context, which led to essential changes in theoretical-conceptual, practical and values training of Cuban health professionals, beginning with the training model, and also the social and humanistic projection characterizing the revolutionary period; therefore, it deserves explaining the meaning of its contributions in the historical development as a worthy homage in its centenary.
