Este trabalho apresenta uma síntese dos desenvolvimentos históricos no ensino superior em Macau. Tudo começa em 1513 com a chegada de Jorge Álvares a Cantão. O Colégio de São Paulo, fundado em 1594 pelos jesuítas, foi a primeira universidade de estilo ocidental na Ásia Oriental, destruída em 1835 por um incêndio. Após 146 anos, em 1981, surgiu a Universidade da Ásia Oriental (privada), herdando o legado do anterior Colégio, adquirida pelo Governo, e transformada na Universidade de Macau (UM) em 1991. A UM cresceu significativamente desde então, com um novo campus em 2014 num aterro na ilha de Hengqin, separada da China por um muro que o circunda. Neste trabalho destacam-se os esforços da UM para melhorar as suas capacidades de investigação científica e fomentar a inovação tecnológica. São igualmente apresentadas contribuições significativas da Faculdade de Direito, incluindo a publicação de textos jurídicos clássicos e a sua tradução. Os esforços da UM na promoção da cooperação académica com a partilha de recursos através de iniciativas como as Alianças Bibliotecárias Académicas também são destacados. A concluir, salientamos o papel da UM na área da Microeletrónica, com uma visão ambiciosa de expandir o seu alcance regional, nacional e global no futuro.
This work presents a synthesis of the historical developments in higher education in Macau. It all begins in 1513 with the arrival of Jorge Álvares in Canton. The College of St. Paul, founded in 1594 by the Jesuits, was the first Western-style university in East Asia, destroyed by fire in 1835. After 146 years, in 1981, the University of East Asia (private) emerged, inheriting the legacy of the former College, acquired by the Government, and transformed into the University of Macau (UM) in 1991. The UM has grown significantly since then, with a new campus in 2014 on reclaimed land on Hengqin Island, separated from China by a surrounding wall. This work highlights the UM’s efforts to improve its scientific research capabilities and foster technological innovation. Significant contributions from the Faculty of Law are also presented, including the publication of classic legal texts and their translation. UM’s efforts in promoting academic cooperation through resource sharing via initiatives such as Academic Library Alliances are also highlighted. In conclusion, we emphasize UM’s role in the field of Microelectronics, with an ambitious vision to expand its regional, national, and global reach in the future.
