History

The water tower on the campus of Santiago has become a symbol of the university.

The university is named after Pope John XXIII's encyclical Mater et Magistra,[2][3] meaning mother and teacher in Latin. At first, PUCMM offered faculties in law, education, and philosophy. Its recognition by the Dominican government came through Law 6150 on 31 December 1962.[4][1][5] In 1991, the institution was delegated with the responsibility for country domain registration.
