| University of Macau
The genesis of the University
of Macau dates back to March 1981 when its predecessor, the
University of East Asia (UEA), was founded by Ricci Island West
Limited. Privately owned and the first university in Macao, UEA
was established with the assistance of the Government of Macao
by a lease of land on Taipa Island, signifying the beginning of
modern tertiary education in Macao. During the first few years
after establishment, UEA mainly enrolled students from Hong
Kong. To meet the demand for local human resources during the
transition period of Macao before its handover to China, the
then Macao-Portuguese Government entrusted the purchase of the
University to the Macao Foundation in 1988. Subsequent
restructuring led to the establishment of the Faculty of Arts,
the Faculty of Business Administration, the Faculty of Social
Sciences and the Faculty of Science and Technology and to the
change of the duration of programmes from three-year to
four-year. The Faculties of Law and Education were established
afterwards and English remained the main teaching medium. |
