The University of Yaoundé I (French: Université de Yaoundé I) is a public university in Cameroon, located in the capital Yaoundé. It was formed in 1993 following a university reform that split the country's oldest university, the University of Yaoundé, into two separate entities: the University of Yaoundé I and the University of Yaoundé II.

The University of Yaounde I, consists of:

  • the Faculty of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences (Faculté des Arts, Lettres et Sciences Humaines, short FALSH)
  • the Faculty of Sciences (Faculté des Sciences, short FS)
  • the Faculty of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences (Faculté de Médecine et de Sciences Biomédicales, short FMSB).
  • The higher teacher's Training College of Yaounde HTTC
  • The National Advanced School of Engineering
  • The Higher Teacher's Training Technical School of Ebolowa.

The main university complex is Ngoa-Ekelle with several satellite campuses elsewhere.[3]
