University of Cebu – Lapu-Lapu and Mandaue Campus (UCLM) . The University of Cebu is the fastest growing University, if not, the most dynamic amongst all universities in the City of Cebu. Previously known as the Cebu College of Commerce when it opened in 1964, it became the Cebu Central Colleges in 1972 and, finally, became University of Cebu in 1992 as a testament of its desire to provide the best and affordable education to the majority.

As part of the University of Cebu system, UCLM is duly recognized by the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) and the Department of Education (DepEd). Several programs from this campus also have Levels I to III accreditation statuses from the Philippine Association of Colleges and Universities Commission on Accreditation (PACUCOA), with the Teacher Education, Criminology, Hotel and Restaurant Management, and Accountancy programs having Level III RA accreditation statuses.
