History

A group of young men headed by lawyer Augusto W. Go formed an alliance and set up an educational institution of what was then called the Cebu College of Commerce, then later renamed Cebu Central Colleges (CCC). Starting with a handful of enrollees, the college was established in 1964. It grew over time and became the University of Cebu.[1]

The University of Cebu has been recognized by the Philippine Association of Colleges and Universities Commission on Accreditation (PACU-COA).

In January 2016, the University was declared as a Center of Excellence for different fields by the Commission on Higher Education.[2]

Campuses

The university currently has five campuses spread across Metro Cebu:

  • Main Campus along Sanciangko St. and J. Alcantara St., Cebu City
  • Banilad Campus along Gov. M. Cuenco Ave., Banilad, Cebu City
  • Lapu-Lapu and Mandaue Campus (LM) (near the border of Lapu-Lapu City and Mandaue) situated near the foot of the Mactan–Mandaue Bridge, along A.C. Cortes Ave., Looc, Mandaue
  • Maritime Education and Training Center (METC) Campus, also known as Mambaling Campus, along Alumnos St., Mambaling, Cebu City
  • Pardo–Talisay (PT) Campus (formerly the St. Paul College Foundation, Inc.) along N. Bacalso Ave., Bulacao Pardo, Cebu City (near the border of Cebu City and Talisay)

Another campus, the former UC South Campus also along Sanciangko St., was demolished and replaced by an expansion of UC's sister company Elizabeth Mall (E-Mall).

Athletics

The University of Cebu is a member of the Cebu Schools Athletic Foundation, Inc. (CESAFI). It was also a member of the CESAFI's precursor, the Cebu Amateur Athletic Association (CAAA).[3]

In 2010, their basketball team, known as the Webmasters, became the first team other than the University of Visayas to win the basketball championship.[4] The Webmasters were able to defend their title the following year.[5] Their MVP, June Mar Fajardo, along with Brian Heruela, went on to have successful careers in the pros.[6] Another former player, Dondon Hontiveros, was also a star player for UC in the CAAA.[3]

The University of Cebu has also been successful in other sports. In 2010, they won the men's football tournament.[7] Five years later, the men's football team won once again.[8] UC also won six gold medals in taekwondo in 2014.[9] In 2017, they won the dancesport competition.[10] In 2019, weightlifter Elreen Ando won gold in the 64-kg category of the CESAFI women’s division.[11] She went on to represent the Philippines in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.[12] In 2022, they won the most medals in swimming.[13] In 2023, they won the men's beach volleyball tournament.[14]

Hazing death

Ronnel Baguio, a Marine Engineering student at the University of Cebu, died in December 2022, allegedly due to injuries from a fraternity hazing.[15][16]
