Overview

The Adventist University of Central Africa (AUCA) was founded in 1978 and received its definitive operating license in 1988. It is a faith-centered, nonprofit institution committed to Christ-centered education and academic excellence, with a mission to shape purpose-led leaders across Africa and beyond. The university serves over 5,000 students across more than 20 programmes and draws from over 30 nations, reflecting its pan-African character. AUCA operates with a 46-year history of combining scholarly excellence with faith-based values and service-oriented education.

The Software Engineering programme is a 4-year, 8-semester course. The university also offers graduate programmes including a Master of Science in Big Data Analytics and an MBA, with the May intake noted as open for the Big Data & AI master's programme.
