HISTORY OF ST AUGUSTINE<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n
\n

In mid-nineties, at the time that the foundation of St Augustine Private Tertiary Institution was mooted, South Africa was on the brink of its first ever truly democratic elections. Anticipating vast economic, political, and social changes, a group of Catholic academics, clergy, and business people recognised the need for a South African Catholic university that could make a significant moral and academic contribution to the development of the country. Their discussions bore fruit in 1999 when St Augustine\u2019s, South Africa\u2019s only Catholic institution of higher education, welcomed its first postgraduate students. From the very beginning emphasis was placed on the education of ethical leaders for Africa through offering high quality degrees in the Humanities.<\/p>\n

The Private Tertiary Institution was opened on 13 July 1999 by the Deputy Minister of Education and started teaching its first students that same month. On 29 July 2004 the Private Tertiary Institution received full accreditation with the right to offer the degrees of Master of Philosophy and Doctor of Philosophy.<\/p>\n

When the Private Tertiary Institution opened in July 1999 Prof Edith Raidt became its founding President and it was situated on rented property on the site of the old Union Observatory in Johannesburg with historic Sir Herbert Baker buildings. At the end of 2001, the Private Tertiary Institution was able to purchase its own campus in Victory Park, Johannesburg, in equally lovely settings with more space. The purchase was made possible by the generous donation of the Catholic Diocese of Rottenburg-Stuttgart in Germany. From the beginning the Private Tertiary Institution reflected the Catholic Intellectual Tradition, while being open to people of all faiths or none.<\/p>\n

While the Private Tertiary Institution started off in a small way with postgraduate degrees, one of its most important aims was to expand to a broader range of disciplines at undergraduate level. During 2003 a feasibility study was conducted to explore the viability of undergraduate programmes in the near future. In 2008 Fr Michael Van Heerden became the second President of the Private Tertiary Institution. Under his leadership the Private Tertiary Institution began to accept students for BCom and BTh degrees in 2009 and in 2010 BA degree programme was offered. In 2013 the Private Tertiary Institution made a decision to hold undergraduate degrees in abeyance and, for the time being, to refocus on postgraduate degrees and short courses. 2014 saw the beginning of the new BA (Hons) programme in Peace Studies, the only one of its kind in the African continent.<\/p>\n

While remaining committed to the academic excellence of its postgraduate offerings, in 2016 St Augustine relaunched its undergraduate degree programmes: a Liberal Arts BA degree and a BTh.<\/p>\n
