Rooted in Jesuit
Excellence
The Proposed Hekima University (PHU) — a transformational institution in Molo, Nakuru County, built to serve the next generation of global leaders through Ignatian pedagogy.
Vision & Mission
Producing Visionary & Ethical Professionals
To produce visionary and ethical professionals who spur greater social transformation — leaders shaped not only by academic rigour but by moral clarity, service to humanity, and commitment to the common good.
Advancing Knowledge, Technology & Entrepreneurship
To form men and women committed to the advancement of innovative knowledge and technological entrepreneurship for the sustainable development of Africa — through excellence in teaching, research, and community engagement.
The Jesuit Tradition
The Proposed Hekima University follows in the footsteps of a 470-year-old Jesuit higher quality educational tradition. From Georgetown in the USA to Sophia University in Japan, Jesuit education is synonymous with rigorous inquiry, holistic human formation, and the pursuit of "Magis" — the more, the greater, the excellence.
Our pedagogy is rooted in the Ignatian Pedagogical Paradigm: Context, Experience, Reflection, Action, and Evaluation. We don't just teach students what to think, but how to think and why to act.
