SBCS celebrates 30 years

Over the years, SBCS has sought, built and maintained relationships with some of the world’s renowned universities and professional associations.

Each campus site has ties with multiple institutions, regardless of the academic disciplines being offered there. What that has done is expose students to a teaching and learning ecosystem that blends best practice learned from a global community of academia.

More than the quantity and strength of SBCS’s academic partnerships, the institution has built a reputation for attracting, and exposing its students to leading professionals in industry, who effectively bring their expertise to bear on the academic content the school delivers.

The institute helps craft professionals who can think critically, creatively and ethically; communicate persuasively; and be a team player and problem solver in whatever sphere they operate – at work, at home and in the classroom. Over its 30-year history SBCS students have routinely achieved world prizes and global recognition for their efforts at their study; a tradition it hopes to continue beyond its 31st year.

In 30 years of delivering globally recognised and industry-relevant programmes in higher education, SBCS boasts of alumni in prominent positions in various occupational spheres – from academia, to information technology, to engineering, to law, to banking and finance, to economics and project management – graduates have leveraged on the qualifications achieved and experiences had at the institute to gain establishment and advancement in their professional careers of choice.

The investment in the physical plant has been one of the hallmarks of SBCS’ existence to date. The uniqueness of the design of campuses, the colour schemes employed in the classrooms – all geared towards encasing students in a mentally and intellectually stimulating learning environment.

More than that, the academic, relaxation and refectory facilities have been constantly maintained and upgraded to ensure they remain relevant to students’ needs regardless of how long you stay.

The institute has commissioned computer labs, engineering labs, recreation rooms, dedicated study rooms, graphics and media facilities, and online library and academic support resources to stay abreast of the progressive teaching and learning philosophies and technologies in education.

Continued development of pedagogy and e-learning strategies has transformed and extended the reach of SBCS in higher education, and its global learning now has an added dimension; export.

Through its online courses SBCS has reached more than 90 territories in both academic qualifications and professional development courses. The experience is now being extended to the international market.
