Uganda
Studies Program
The Uganda Studies Program offers an invaluable opportunity for studies in and about Africa, for authentic cross-cultural exposure, and for participation in the lively faith and worship of Global South Christianity. Studying at Uganda Christian University is a unique experience in the British lecture and tutorial style of learning.
Opportunities include academic classes taken alongside African students from the Honours College at Uganda Christian University. Students will take courses on the history and culture of East Africa, the religions and traditions of Africa, and African literature, as well as an elective of their choosing. Students participate together in a faith and practice seminar where they will process and apply their experience in Uganda.
The program will feature language study (Luganda) and home stays in the local community, as well as field trips to historical and cultural sites in East Africa. Students will join local campus groups in order to share and serve with fellow African students. These opportunities include working with Habitat for Humanity, volunteering with a local orphanage, and contributing to campus worship and missions.
