Welcome to the School of Social Sciences at Bugema University! It is with great enthusiasm that I lead this vibrant hub dedicated to nurturing compassionate sociologists, psychologists, social workers, and visionary leaders. Rooted in the principles of the Seventh-day Adventist faith, our programs seamlessly integrate rigorous scholarship, ethical practice, and hands on expertise tailored to address Africa’s diverse social challenges and opportunities.

Our nurturing environment, enriched with good facilities, empowers students to engage with pressing societal issues through innovative research, impactful advocacy, and heartfelt community service. We strive to cultivate critical thinkers who champion justice, foster mutual understanding, and drive meaningful change. By blending academic excellence with practical application, we prepare graduates to build stronger, more inclusive communities across Uganda and beyond.

Join us in this transformative journey to shape a hopeful, equitable future through knowledge, compassion, and dedicated service. Your contributions will leave a lasting impact.

We serve with unwavering commitment and inspiration.  And so we welcome you to our school.  The school has two deparments: Department of Development and Humanitarian Studies, and the Department of Social Works and Counselling.  When you join any of two, you will never leave the same.  We shall transform you into a first class community personnel.  We shall equipn you to become an excellent scholary social leader or worker who can engineer development and community services which the world is dieing for.
