USJ signed MoU with the Ateneo de Davao University



The University of Saint Joseph (USJ) signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Ateneo de Davao University of the Philippines. With this collaboration, both Institutions aim to foster International Service-Learning and Global Programmes, Academic Mobility within Students and Faculty staff and to harvest joint research activities and publications.

Ateneo de Davao University,  is a private Catholic basic and higher education institution run by the Philippine Province of the Society of Jesus in Davao City, Davao del Sur, Philippines. It was established in 1948, when the Jesuits took over the administration of the diocesan school, St. Peter’s Parochial School. The Jesuits were naming “Davao” to all the schools that they were opening, at that time Ateneo de Davao was the seventh school in the country.

The University has five undergraduate schools and also runs a grade school  and an high school, both Junior High and Senior High. In 1969, the University was granted “Institutional Accreditation” by the Philippine Accrediting Association of Schools, Colleges and Universities in which only six universities in the country were given such recognition, and was also granted Autonomous Status by the Commission on Higher Education (Philippines).
