Principal's Welcome Message

WELCOME


Greetings,


I would like to extend a heartfelt welcome to you.

United African Technical College (UATC) is a Christian higher-educational institution dedicated to professional training. We are here to help you become outstanding professional leaders for Tanzania and the world.


The world we live in is changing faster and more radically than most of us can ever imagine. The recent advancement in computing and information technology has brought us the so-called Fourth Industrial Revolution. Not just big tech companies, such as Google, Apple, Microsoft, and Amazon, but almost every other company and business worldwide also strives to use cutting-edge technology to achieve its mission and goals.


It may still be challenging here in Tanzania to keep pace with such evolving innovations as quickly as other developed countries do. However, UATC believes that advanced academic and professional education can turn challenges into opportunities. We will strive to equip you as leaders who can also lead change amid the evolving landscape of industries and professions.


UATC is a family-like community. Our faculty and staff are committed to supporting you as brothers and sisters so that during and even after your study, you may continue to grow in a holistic sense—intellectually, emotionally, spiritually, and professionally.


If you are already part of the UATC family, I welcome you again. If you're still considering it, you're also very welcome here. I would love to see you on campus soon.


May God bless you and let you flourish personally and professionally!


Soli deo gloria,
