Dorcus Ruhigisha
2013 / Bachelor of Science
My time at Burman University was full of growth in different areas of my life. At the time when I joined back in 2010, I was just a young girl with lots of dreams, however God has a bigger purpose for my life. I grew in my faith, mentally I felt ready by the time I was leaving Burman university. I’m currently aspiring to become a medical doctor by God’s grace.
