This October, we will celebrate 1,000 UCBC alumni. That’s 1,000 young Congolese leaders equipped with a transformational education. 1,000 changemakers ready and able to help Congo flourish.
UCBC will also be hosting its first ever Homecoming! All alumni have been invited to return to UCBC for the graduation weekend. UCBC will be providing food and lodging for any alumni able to attend. Homecoming is a special time to reconnect with friends and professors, reminisce about college days, and network with other young professionals.

HEAR FROM THE GRADUATES WHAT UCBC HAS MEANT TO THEM

Lauriene Nzurana, Economics
“After my studies at UCBC, I’m going to start trading in basic necessities and animal husbandry. UCBC has equipped me with the principles of good business management and knowledge of how to earn a living in livestock farming. For me, finishing my studies means taking the next step in life.”
Paulin Ngalanga, Economics
“After graduation, I’m going to set up a business in the agricultural sector because UCBC has helped me to value and understand the functionality of the economy, as well as knowing the key factors of agribusiness. For me, achieving my degree means becoming a person who will provide a solution to the community’s problems.”
