Sumario: | Given the process of internationalization in which the university institution is today, the study of the reform that occurred in the first half of the 19th century when the corporation of the old regime disappeared and a centralized and state order emerged. The creation of the body of professors is used as an observatory through which some novelties can be assessed and inheritances tracked. The essay is enriched with the edition of the ladder project, a cast of the professors of the time and, above all, the compilation by Vicente de la Fuente of the obituaries of the first professors in Madrid: Tomás Palacios y Alamín (c 1764 -1841), Pedro Castelló y Roca (1812-1843), Joaquín Lumbreras (1777-1844), Mariano de la Bodega y Merodio (1794-1845), Vicente González Arnao (1766-1845), Prudencio María Berriozábal (1816-1847) ), Andrés Leal y Ruiz (1801-1851), Santiago Martínez Domínguez (1814-1851), Mariano Echavarría (-1851), Manuel José Pérez (1795-1855).
