Synopsis

Christian Professional Formation has been the hallmark of Uganda Christian University.
Established by the Church of Uganda in 1997, the University has championed an explicitly Christian-based form of education. It has thereby distinguished itself as a University whose model of professional formation seeks to balance professional and Christian character formation. At its establishment, the University drew on the rich dual heritage of the Christian education, on the one hand, and on the American tradition of higher education, on the other. From these it furthered the motif of integration of faith in learning and service.
The book tells the story of Uganda Christian University against the backdrop of the Church of Uganda’s use of education as mission. By so doing it shows how the founding fathers have taken the two traditions to enable the Church of Uganda to faithfully uphold its calling to education as mission. It draws on the tradition of virtue ethics, sociology of education and Christian worldview studies.
