The American University of Malta (AUM) is a private institution offering American-style liberal arts education, located in Cospicua, Malta. Announced in May 2015, the university was introduced as part of a broader initiative aimed at supporting the economic and social development of southern Malta.[5] . Following the announcement, Dock 1 in Cospicua was selected as the main campus site, with additional locations proposed in Cospicua and Żonqor, Marsaskala[6] . The university was officially established on 16 September 2016.[1]
The AUM admitted its first cohort of students in September 2017[7], during the restoration of its main campus. The restoration was completed in January 2019, followed by the university’s official inauguration ceremony in March 2019.[7][4]
