World's First Decentralised University

UCAST is the first decentralised network of departments that extends across Asia, Europe, America & Africa and encompasses cutting edge industries as well as classical courses.

At UCAST we believe that distance learning is the future.  Distance learning has many benefits.  

Practice Orientation

Our courses are practice-oriented which allows you to apply acquired skills in real work situations during your studies. We integrate numerous industry experts in our programme.

Learner development: Learners may be less intimidated and might engage more freely with each other and their tutors, and have more time to rationalise and formulate comments than in a classroom environment. 

Cost effectiveness: It costs a great deal less to enrol on the same course and cuts down on ancillary expenses associated with physically attending classes overseas.
