Vice Chancellor's
Message
Welcome to the University of Africa, at Toru-Orua (UAT), one of Africa’s youngest institutions, having taken in its first cohort of undergraduate students in 2017. UAT, a State university with a strong focus on “internationalisation” represents a new way of providing and managing higher education, combining the benefits of strong State support with private sector entrepreneurial thinking. Its commitment to internationalisation is amply reflected in its curricular structure, partnerships with carefully selected institutions in other parts of the world and the composition of both its faculty and students. Its bold but achievable mission is to become a shining example of how, through good governance and stewardship and leveraging carefully selected strategic partnerships, high quality education which is responsive to both the needs of the local community and the continent can be achieved.
