Student Stories
Lives Changed by Online Learning
Studying online at EAU while raising my family was the best decision I ever made. The programme was rigorous, the faculty were responsive, and the community of fellow students across East Africa enriched my learning immensely. I am now a school principal.
The lecturers at EAU are practitioners — they bring real-world experience into every class. My Law degree opened doors I never expected. I passed the Puntland bar examination on my first attempt and now work as a legal counsel for a major regional NGO.
As a woman from a rural district of Puntland, I never imagined I could access university education. EAU's Women in Leadership Scholarship made it possible. Today I run my own technology business in Bosaso and mentor young women to pursue their dreams.
I chose EAU because of its reputation for academic excellence in Puntland. The Master's programme gave me the knowledge and confidence to take on leadership roles in government. I now serve as a senior policy advisor — something I could not have achieved without EAU.
EAU completely transformed my life. The online programmes allowed me to study while working, and within one year of graduating I was promoted to Finance Manager at Dahabshiil Bank. The quality of teaching and the support from faculty is outstanding.
