The University of Asmara (UoA) was Eritrea’s first university and is located in the capital city, Asmara. It was created by the Piae Madres Nigritiae (Comboni Sisters). The school was meant to provide for the local population, though its initial enrollment in the 50s was entirely Italian.

Eritrea had a long and important relationship with Italy during the years from 1981 to 1940 when the Italians were the colonial occupiers. It is not surprising that the first institution of higher education, therefore, was established by Italians and modeled after universities in their own country.
