About UCU: 
Uganda Christian University was
founded when the historic Bishop Tucker Theological College was promoted as a
university in 1997. Bishop Tucker Theological College trained clergy and
educators during its 84-year history from 1913-1997. The local chief, Hamu
Mukasa, granted land for the college to operate in Mukono. International
partnerships were part of the College’s missionary history. The Church Mission Society
teamed with Ugandan leaders and others to assure the College had the necessary
intellectual and other capital. By the late 1990s, the Church of Uganda sought
to have a broader impact on society through the higher education – not only of
clergy but of other professionals as well. Uganda Christian University was
established in 1997.
In 2004, the Government of
