“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.
