Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University (NMMU) formed in 2005 after the merger of the University of Port Elizabeth, the Port Elizabeth Technikon and the Port Elizabeth campus of Vista University.

NMMU brings together practical and higher education, as students can study towards diplomas and degrees up to and including doctoral level, and a number of courses include workplace experience as part of the curriculum. With about 25 000 students enrolled in 2008 in its five PE-based campuses (and one campus located in George), NMMU is the largest higher education institution in the Eastern and Southern Cape.
