Nvanungi Caroline
National Certificate in Electrical Installation and Systems Maintenance
My name is Nvanungi Caroline, and I am proud to be among the pioneer students of the National Certificate in Electrical Installation and Systems Maintenance at Oyam Institute of Sciences and Technology—an experience that sparked not only my skills but my confidence and vision for the future. From day one, the program exposed me to real-world electrical systems, safety protocols, and hands-on practices essential for powering homes, industries, and Institutions, and as a young woman in a technical field, I was encouraged, mentored, and trained not just to participate—but to lead with excellence. What made the difference was OIST’s unique blend of practical learning, professional mentorship, and a nurturing environment where every student is seen, supported, and challenged to grow beyond their limits—and through this, I discovered not just a career, but a calling. It’s why I’ve chosen to continue my journey with OIST by enrolling in the Diploma in Biomedical Engineering, where I’ll apply my technical foundation to solving critical problems in healthcare technology and systems management. To anyone standing where I once stood—uncertain, ambitious, and ready to learn—know this: Oyam Institute of Sciences and Technology is more than a place to study; it’s a place to become. Start here, and let your potential power a brighter future.
Okuga Ceaser Franco
National Certificate Biomedical Engineering
My name is Okuga Ceaser Franco, and becoming a pioneer student of the National Certificate in Biomedical Engineering at Oyam Institute of Sciences and Technology (OIST) was more than a turning point—it was the moment my passion found direction, and my future began to take shape. When I first joined OIST, I had a deep interest in healthcare technology, but I lacked the tools and clarity to transform that interest into a career; what I found here was not just a program, but a community that believed in me, challenged me, and equipped me with the practical skills, confidence, and mindset to make a real difference in the world. The hands-on training, personal mentorship, and supportive learning environment turned uncertainty into purpose—and before long, I was troubleshooting medical equipment, supporting clinical care environments, and realizing just how powerful this profession could be in saving lives.
That’s why returning to pursue the Diploma in Biomedical Engineering wasn’t just a next step—it was a natural one, because I knew OIST was the place that would take me further, sharpen my technical abilities, and open even greater opportunities to contribute meaningfully to Uganda’s healthcare system and beyond. To any aspiring student out there: If you want to grow beyond limits, learn through doing, and serve humanity through Innovation—start where I started. Join OIST, and write a story even greater than mine.
Mociruku Jovian Betty
National Certificate in Public Health Technology and Management
My name is Mociruku Jovian Betty, and being among the first students to pursue the National Certificate in Public Health Technology and Management at Oyam Institute of Sciences and Technology has been one of the most empowering decisions of my life—a journey that transformed my interest in community health into the ability to lead, manage, and create sustainable change where it matters most. Through this program, I gained more than just theoretical knowledge—I learned to understand public health systems deeply, apply management principles practically, and navigate real-world health challenges with clarity, strategy, and compassion, all within a hands-on, student-centered environment led by dedicated mentors who cared about both our academic and personal growth.
With every field assignment, every group project, and every moment of mentorship, I grew into someone ready to serve—not only with knowledge, but with purpose—and that is why I chose to return to OIST to pursue the Diploma in Public Health Technology and Management, knowing that it will equip me with the advanced leadership, communication, and data-driven decision-making skills needed to scale my impact even further. To anyone passionate about improving lives, strengthening health systems, and becoming a change maker at the intersection of health, technology, and leadership—Oyam Institute is where your mission begins, and your impact takes root.I am proud to continue this journey with OIST, and I invite you to take your first step here, just as I did.
Okiring Alex Medan
Diploma in Diagnostic Medical Sonography
I’m Okiring Alex Medan, and being one of the pioneer student of the Diploma in Diagnostic Medical Sonography at Oyam Institute of Sciences and Technology (OIST) has been a journey that transformed my life in ways I never imagined—from stepping into a classroom with curiosity, to stepping confidently into the medical field with skills that save lives. From day one, OIST didn’t just teach theory; it immersed us in real-world practice, with expert instructors who guided us, state-of-the-art equipment that mirrored professional hospitals, and a curriculum that bridged learning with immediate application—so much so that I found myself already working in the field while still in my first year, gaining experience, earning income, and building the future I once only dreamed of.
Each lecture, each scan, each practical session was a step forward—not only toward graduation but toward becoming someone who brings clarity, care, and compassion into diagnostic medicine, and by the time I completed the program, I wasn’t just qualified—I was ready, confident, and already rooted in my career. To those thinking of taking this path: if you want more than a diploma—if you want mentorship, opportunity, relevance, and the rare gift of earning while learning—then Oyam Institute is not just a place to study; it’s a place to become. For me, choosing OIST was not just a good decision—it was the best decision I ever made.
