“At another front, the university is starting a new faculty of Health Sciences starting February 2019. The University will introduce different courses to be implemented in phases under academic programme,” Lugujjo said.

Lugujjo said that the courses in offing include; Bacholor of Medicines, Bachelor of Surgery, nurses’ courses, Public Health, Healtj Management and Medical laboratory courses.

“Plans are already in high gear to start a Faculty of Law, the course is however awaiting accreditation by National Council of Higher Education (NCHE).

“The University’s PHD Programme in Business Management which was accredited by NCHE in December 2016 will now kick off on October 2018. The University has rolled out a new 10 year strategic plan 2017/18- 2026/27 with eight pillars.”

The University Chancellor, Dr. Wilberforce Kisamba Mugerwa noted that the university is currently focusing on Internationalisation of the University through building partnerships with global companies.

“There is great need to consolidate what has been started on in the areas of collaborations, innovations and internationalisation and in my four years to come, I am going to make sure that we step up collaborations and internationalisation so that we can have avenues of assisting the university,” Dr Kisamba said.

“Higher education has revolved over years and in the current times, very few universities will survive and stand on their own without collaborations and internationalisation of their education programs and accademic activities,” he added.
