Mapúa University announced the significant expansion of the Mapúa franchise into Mindanao through its subsidiary Malayan Colleges Inc., incorporated a new entity, Malayan Colleges Mindanao Inc. (MCMI), with substantial capitalization to establish and operate the Davao campus. MCMI acquired a 2.3-hectare property in Davao City, with construction of facilities slated to begin in the first quarter of 2016.
Malayan Colleges Mindanao started its operations in July 8, 2018, offering collegiate, university, and graduate courses. This move underscored Mapúa's continued commitment to expanding its presence in the education sector, leveraging Davao City's status as a burgeoning center for trade, commerce, and business process outsourcing in Mindanao.[2]
On June 10, 2022, Malayan Colleges Mindanao (MCM) rebranded its name to Mapúa Malayan Colleges Mindanao (MMCM) alongside its new logo. This change highlights Mapúa's heritage and its commitment to high-quality education and global standards.
"This name-change will strengthen our way of presenting ourselves as a Mapúa school, a learner-centred and outcomes-based learning institution, providing an environment where students can acquire relevant skills, knowledge, and values to launch their careers and passions," Dr. Dodjie S. Maestrecampo, MMCM President, explained.[3]
On April 27, 2023, MMCM renovated its facade together with its new name and logo. Mapúa MCM employs a learner-centered, outcomes-based approach, providing students with personalized education, industry-relevant skills, and a strong focus on research and innovation. The campus features modern facilities, including hybrid flexible classrooms and the Blackboard learning management system.
