The Copperbelt University (CBU) is one of Zambia’s leading public universities, located in Kitwe, in the Copperbelt Province. Established in 1987, CBU evolved from the University of Zambia (UNZA) and has since grown into a major institution of higher learning. It offers a wide range of undergraduate and postgraduate programs in fields such as Engineering, Medicine, Business, Environmental Studies, and Humanities. CBU is known for its strong emphasis on research, innovation, and industrial linkages, particularly in mining and engineering, given its location in Zambia’s mineral-rich Copperbelt region.
