Simón Bolívar University (Mexico)

Simón Bolívar University[1] (Spanish: Universidad Simón Bolívar or USBMéxico) is a private Roman Catholic university in Mixcoac, Benito Juárez, Mexico City.

The university began in 1944 when the Franciscan Sisters of the Immaculate Conception started an education project beginning from the basic levels of learning; with the creation of the preschool and primary levels, the Colegio Simón Bolívar (Simón Bolívar College) was founded.

Nowadays, Simón Bolívar University offers 25 bachelor's and master's programmes.

The university's library can be found in a big house that dates from colonial times in which, later, General José Joaquín de Herrera installed his provisional government in 1848, during the Mexican–American War, thus making the building into a national historic monument.
