The University of Cape Verde (Portuguese: Universidade de Cabo Verde) is a Cape Verdean university. The university was formed in 2006 by the merging of two colleges:
- ISE (Instituto Superior de Educação) located in Praia
- ISECMAR (Instituto Superior de Engenharias e Ciências do Mar) in Mindelo
In 2007, a third school officially joined the others:
- INIDA (Instituto Nacionai de Investigação e Desenvolvimento Agrário) in São Jorge dos Órgãos
On January 31, 2014, three candidates ran for rector. It was the first time in Cape Verdean history that a university rector would be directly chosen by the student body, faculty members as well as by the staff. Of the three candidates that vied for the position, Dr Judite de Nascimento overwhelmingly won the election and became the first elected university rector and first female rector.
The University of Cape Verde has five campuses:
- Faculties of Science and Technology and Social Sciences, Humanities and Arts are located on the Santiago island at Palmarejo (main campus);

- School of Business and Government is located in the neighborhood of Achada Santo António, Praia;
- School of Agricultural Sciences and Environment is located in the municipality of São Jorge dos Órgãos;
- School of Maritime Sciences is located on the island of São Vicente at Ribeira Julião.
