Universidad de Manila - UdM

Universidad de Manila - UdM The Universidad de Manila (UdM) formerly known as City College of Manila (CCM) is a university funded and run by the City of Manila.

Universidad de Manila was founded in 1995 during the term of Manila Mayor Alfredo Lim. It was then located in the old 12-storey high Philippine National Bank Building in the district of Santa Cruz. Later on, the City Council of Manila unanimously voted in favor of transferring the CCM's main building to the site, and the construction of a five-storey edifice ensued. Thereafter, Manila City officia

ls, during the incumbency of Mayor Lito Atienza, initiated the elevation of CCM to a university to promote higher learning and provide more opportunities to Manila youth for a quality education. By virtue of the amendments of Ordinance No. 7885, which was authored by majority floor leader Ernesto Dionisio and some members of the majority bloc, the CCM acquired the name Universidad de Manila (UdM). In 2007, the Commission on Higher Education allowed the UdM to confer postgraduate studies. On November 30 of the same year, during the commemoration of the 144th birth anniversary of Andrés Bonifacio, Mayor Lim renamed the school in honor of Bonifacio, who despite of financial difficulties pursued knowledge through self-education. UdM has two buildings, the Annex at Escolta and the Main Building in Mehan Gardens.
