DMI - St. John The Baptist University - Blantyre Campus

DMI-St. John the Baptist University – Blantyre Campus is the Blantyre campus of DMI-St. John the Baptist University (DMISJBU), a private university in Malawi whose main campus is at Mangochi. The World Higher Education Database, maintained by the International Association of Universities, records the university as a private, co-educational institution founded in 2010, with its main address at Mangochi and further campuses in Lilongwe and Blantyre. It lists five schools – Business Administration, Commerce, Computer Science and Engineering, Education, and Social Work – awarding diplomas and bachelor's degrees. These details describe the university as a whole rather than this campus. According to the Catholic Diocese of Mangochi, the university was approved by the Government of Malawi on 29 March 2011 and is accredited by the National Council for Higher Education (NCHE). It is run by the congregations of the MMI Fathers and the DMI Sisters and forms part of the DMI Group of Institutions. Its stated vision is "To Spearhead Employable Education in Africa and Become Part of its History", and its mission centres on "Imparting Quality Employable Education with Discipline". The NCHE, established by an Act of Parliament in 2011, is the statutory body that registers higher education institutions in Malawi and accredits them and their programmes, public and private alike. Blantyre was founded in 1876 through the missionary work of the Church of Scotland and named after the Scottish birthplace of the explorer David Livingstone. It is Malawi's centre of finance and commerce and its second-largest city, with 800,264 residents at the 2018 census. The programmes taught at the Blantyre campus, its fees, intake dates and street address have not been published online; prospective students are advised to telephone before travelling.
