The University of Eastern Africa, Baraton was established in 1979 as an affiliate of Andrews University, Michigan State, United States of America, until 1991, when it became the first University to be chartered by the government of the Republic of Kenya. Ever since, over 5000 students from all parts of the world have successfully graduated in various disciplines and now hold reputable positions both in the public and corporate sectors.
Being a Seventh-day Adventist Church owned institution, UEAB subscribes to the Seventh-day Adventist Church belief in wholistic education that develops the mental, physical and spiritual spheres of the student in readiness for effective service to God and humanity. At the end of the degree program, a UEAB graduate will have gained a high level of integrity and expertise in their chosen field of study; ready to tackle the challenges and demands that come with the fast changing job market.
UEAB is an internationally acclaimed institution, drawing students and faculty from over 20 countries of Africa, Asia, Europe and America. This provides all our students, faculty and staff with a great opportunity for international cultural exchange, fusion of ideas and appreciation of diversity.
UEAB enjoys cordial relationships with the National Government, the Nandi County Government and other stakeholders and this has continued to foster positive growth in the various aspects of our operations.
UEAB Main Campus’ location away from the hustle and bustle of urban areas also ensures a safe, secure and conducive learning environment for the students. Accessibility to the Campus has been made even easier by the recent tarmacking of the road from Chepterit Trading Centre to the University and beyond. As we foster academic excellence, we seek to produce men and women with moral virtues and high emotional intelligence, which are key ingredients for success.
