ABOUT KABALE UNIVERSITY

Inaugurated in 2001, Kabale University is a private institution, licensed by the National Council for Higher Education (NCHE) (Licence No. U1.PL.003). The first forty-two students were admitted in 2002. Currently, the student population has risen to over two thousand (2000) persons.

Kabale University is unique in its origin. It is a secular community-founded and people-centred institution, which was established by a group of promoters in collaboration with the District Local Governments of Kabale , Kanungu, Kisoro and Rukungiri (consisting of the earlier administrative area known as Kigezi) who continue to support the institution.

The founders of the University took into account not only the potentials mentioned in the previous section but also the historical underdevelopment of Kigezi region, which was isolated for exploitation as a labour reserve and underserved in terms of tertiary institutions during the colonial period. Despite this shortage in tertiary institutions, the people of the region demonstrated exceptional zeal for education by studying elsewhere from the time formal education was introduced in Uganda. The founders therefore capitalised on this early investment in the human resource to found the university in order to provide the education, which to date remains the most treasured possession that can be bequeathed to one's offspring in this area.For more information on Kabale University click here: admissions@kabaleuniverity.ac.ug
