Being only the second time it’s organised at the university, this year’s career week fair saw the inclusion of a magazine and a variety of speakers during the entire week.

The Vice Chancellor, Rev. Dr. John Senyonyi, while opening the career fair, lauded the event for giving Uganda Christian University students a chance to interact with employers and understand what they need.
“There is need for the university to partner with the potential employers, and career fairs enable the students to understand what the employers need,” Dr Senyonyi said.
The Career Week, which ran from November 14-19, kicked off with a launch on Friday 11, where students enjoyed the sight of deputy vice chancellors Dr. Alex Kagume and Mr. Doug Fountain, among other university administrators dancing on stage.
During the course of the week various professionals and alumni talked to groups of students from different courses.
