Background
History
Originally founded in 1850 as a college for training Catholic schoolmasters, St. Mary's became a constituent college of the University of London Institute of Education in 1949. This affiliation ended in 1976, and the university's degree courses were then validated by the University of Surrey. Formerly called St Mary's University College, the university was granted full title by the Privy Council on 23 January 2014. Since July 2019, the university has hosted the Mater Ecclesiae College, whose Ecclesiastical faculties (enshrined since 2013 in the "Bellarmine Institute") were added after the closure of Heythrop College, University of London.
