​As a pan-African university, our passion is to respond to the actual and realistic needs of students who want to empower themselves, and through empowering themselves, contribute to wealth creation – for themselves, their families, communities and countries. We want to achieve this through:

Flexible Administration

Service Excellence

Innovative Use of Social and Technical Media

We are proud to have joined forces with the Africa Research University, (established in 2015).
