Malawi Adventist University is a private Christian in Ntcheu Malawi affiliated to the Seventh-day Adventist Church.[1]
It is run by the Seventh-day Adventist Church, and is part of its system of higher education the Seventh-day Adventist education system, the world's second largest Christian school system.[2][3][4] [5]
History
The earliest Seventh-day Adventist church was established in Tanzania in 1903, followed by church work around Lake Victoria.
Many primary and secondary school have since been established. Some of these have been offering post secondary education, but none of them has offered a full bachelor's degree program. For this reason, students desiring that level of education in an Adventist institution before 1980 had to go outside Eastern Africa.
