HUC History
The Founding of HUC
In 1984 Hekima University College was founded as a Jesuit School of Theology by the Jesuit Conference of Africa and Madagascar (JCAM) to serve the needs of the Society of Jesus in Africa in the formation of Jesuits for priesthood and to respond to the needs of the Church in an indigenous context of Theology and to prepare people for Ministry in the Church.
The Beginning
HUC Growth
In 1992, Hekima University College became a Constituent College of the Catholic University of Eastern Africa (CUEA). Hekima University College is guided by its own Statutes, Constituent Colleges Convention, the Charter of the Catholic University of Eastern Africa (CUEA) and related documents of the Society of Jesus in relation to formation and higher education. On the recommendation of the Academic Board, the Board of Governors may revise the Statutes from time to time. Students are advised to familiarize themselves with the Statutes and the related documents.
HUC TODAY
Today, Hekima University College has grown and continues to grow as a centre of excellent formation, research and intellectual scholarship with six institutes and highly ranked academic programs in the Jesuit School of Theology and Institute of Peace Studies and International Relations.
