San Pedro College is a private coeducational teaching, service and research college located in Davao City, Davao del Sur, Philippines. Founded in 1956 by the Dominican Sisters of the Trinity from Quebec, Canada, the university was originally intended to teach and make contributions in the science and practice of nursing in Mindanao. Now, it encompasses several allied health sciences, arts and sciences, education, information technology and business programs, in addition to the nursing course it first offered.
The college is broadly organized into seven undergraduate departments and one graduate division at its main (Guzman Street) campus, with each department and the graduate division defining its own admission standards and academic programs in near autonomy. The college also administers one satellite Basic Education Campus at Ulas, Davao City. Of its seven undergraduate departments, five offer degrees in the health sciences. These are the departments of Nursing, Pharmacy, Physical Therapy, Respiratory Therapy, and Medical Technology. SPC's graduate school offers two doctorate programs, one master in nursing program, and five master of arts programs.
Since its founding, San Pedro College has been a coed, Catholic institution where admission has not been restricted by gender, race or religion (despite being a Catholic institution). The student body consists of nearly 7,000 undergraduate and 100 graduate students from all over the country, but majority of the student population comes from Mindanao particularly Davao City, where the school is located. BEC enrollees total to around 4,000.
In 2014, San Pedro College opened its Ulas Campus at Davao-Bukidnon Highway, Davao City for School Year 2012-2013, accepting its first applicants for Pre-School, Grades 1 to 4, and 1st to 2nd Year High School. The Basic Education Campus now accepts enrollees for Pre-School and Grades 1-9. SPC also offers Senior High School admissions at the main campus.
