In the future, success will come not from what you know, but from how well you learn and adjust.

The world is changing quickly - and education should change with it. The past year has shown us how quickly things change. Entire jobs and industries have been made obsolete. Entire new replacements have emerged. Even more so, we live in a world where knowledge becomes rapidly outdated, and the minimum required levels of expertise continue to shift with each passing generation. Besides, you never know where your career of impact will take you. Most people end up working in roles for which they never studied. The jobs of the future don’t even exist yet - so how can you be ready? What should your education do for you - to make sure you are prepared no matter what comes?

Are you like most people?

Most people go to a university that...

  • Doesn’t prepare them for a job

  • Doesn’t prepare them to create their own jobs

  • Was not prepared for the pandemic

  • Is led by conventional/traditional leaders

  • Teaches them only through boring lectures and theory

  • Doesn’t have a relationship with them after graduation day

  • Doesn’t connect them with opportunities beyond the
    classroom

    • Attend ALU
    and...

  • Get well-equipped for a job

  • Prepares you to create your own job and jobs for others

  • Be part of a learning system that is optimized for the pandemic

  • Be led by some of the most innovative educators in the world

  • Learn through hands-on, real-world experiences and amazing peers

  • Be part of a network for life that helps you secure opportunities

  • Become part of a thriving pan-African-global network of experts, mentors, partners and investors.

    • Students at ALU are ready for the future,
    no matter how it keeps changing.

    It's not what you know.
    It's how you learn.

    Students at ALU are equipped with the knowledge and skills that are time-proof, preparing them not just with an understanding of today’s opportunities, but also, tomorrow’s challenges. What matters most to your future success is not memorised facts and figures. Even in the most technical fields - such as computing, your success will not come from merely mastering a programming language - because, in your career, multiple programming languages will come and go. What will define your success is your ability to keep learning, adapting and innovating - so no matter where your career takes you, you’ll always have the skill sets to keep learning and thriving. This is what you'll learn with ALU's Degrees of Tomorrow.

    about their experience

    The exposure I have received through both work experience, classroom experiential, and extensive academic training allowed me to deepen my knowledge about what it means to be an agent of change in 21st century Africa.

    When I am asked about what I love the most about ALU, my answer is always the people. I have dived into a diverse community with a rich culture and brilliant perspectives. I have learnt so much from the faculty and my peers. I’m always excited to have fruitful conversations that drive my growth.

    Mariam Junaa Mhina

    ALU has given me the opportunity to practice what I do in class, develop new skills, and most importantly take my first steps in the professional world. I’m currently a study intern working as a Residential Assistant where I drive the cultural integration of over 100 students from 35+ countries.

    My absolute favourite thing about ALU is the strong sources of mentorship that is available to us. We constantly have executives from top companies visiting us all the time in addition to the super talented staff we have on campus.
