Company Description
Makerere University Business School (MUBS) is a leading public tertiary institution that provides business, management, and vocational education in Uganda. Established in 1997 through a merger of the Makerere University Faculty of Commerce and the National College of Business Studies (NCBS), the school operates as an affiliated, autonomous public institution under Makerere University. The institution is administratively headquartered at its sprawling main campus on Plot 21A, Port Bell Road in Nakawa, Kampala.
The core institutional mission of the school centers on enabling the evolution of business and management education through cutting-edge research, hands-on professional training, and proactive community entrepreneurship. As a premier center for tertiary academic learning across East Africa, the school aligns its learning structures to solve real-world challenges, heavily emphasizing digital literacy, practical financial accounting, and modern technological integration. To expand educational equity across Uganda, the business school runs multiple regional branches, including the MUBS Mbarara Regional Campus in Western Uganda, the Jinja Campus in Eastern Uganda, and additional centers in Arua and Mbale.
Beyond standard academic delivery, the institution serves as a critical ecosystem incubator for private trade development and corporate leadership. It operates the specialized MUBS Entrepreneurs Incubation Center, providing actionable research, mentorship networks, and productivity toolkits designed to support small business management and help vulnerable local small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) become globally competitive. Backed by an active student leadership body and deep industry linkages, the establishment hosts annual premier platforms—such as the highly regarded Makerere University Careers Expo—to seamlessly transition graduates from academic studies straight into target corporate sectors.
The primary undergraduate degrees, postgraduate diplomas, and business outreach services coordinated by Makerere University Business School include:
-
- Undergraduate Degree Programs: Awarding top-performing qualifications such as the Bachelor of Commerce (BCom), Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA), and Bachelor of Procurement and Logistics Management.
- Postgraduate Business Programs: Providing advanced academic research and training tracks including Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) programs, Executive MBAs, and Master of Science degrees.
- MUBS Entrepreneurship Centre: Direct outreach, customized corporate consultancy, and technical incubation services to scale small and informal businesses.

- ACMIS Student Portals: Highly integrated, secure cloud architectures facilitating rapid self-service portal registration, grades tracking, and digital fee processing.
