TheCatholic University of Mozambique (Portuguese:Universidade Católica de Moçambique,UCM) is a university inMozambique.

UCM was founded on August 10, 1996, by theMozambican conference of Bishops[1] to makehigher education available to central and northern Mozambique. Before UCM's creation, higher education in Mozambique was only available in the capital,Maputo.[citation needed] Campuses are located inBeira,Chimoio,Cuamba,Nampula,Pemba,Quelimane andTete.[1] The rector is Prof. Dr. Padre Alberto Ferreira.[1]

History

[edit]

The initiative to create the Catholic University of Mozambique (UCM) came up during the peace negotiations in Rome betweenFRELIMO andRENAMO. In June 1992, negotiations were deadlocked; later, the mediator, Dom Jaime Pedro Gonçalves,Archbishop ofBeira, presented the idea to establish a quality university for the center and north of Mozambique and to correct the unequal concentration of higher education institutions in Maputo. Subsequently, this led to the signing of the peace agreement on October 4, 1992, between FRELIMO and RENAMO.

The Catholic University of Mozambique was established as an institutional compromise, and was officially founded in 1995 (Boletim da República, Decreto N° 43/95, September 14). In August 1996, UCM opened its first faculties in Beira and Nampula.
