CUU campus
The city campus of CUU provides students with countless opportunities for work and recreation — from sitting in a coffee shop with a laptop to internships at large companies. Kampala has a well developed entertainment infrastructure, but the rhythm of the big city can be distracting for some students.
Students have access to the extensive scientific library of the university. The collection of scientific papers helps them in conducting research. The university cares about the physical health of students, so it provides a number of athletic opportunities: sports grounds and various clubs. Foreigners who come to CUU through exchange programs study and live with local students. Thus, the university promotes intercultural exchange and the establishment of interethnic relations.
