As you may already be aware that the term for Kyambogo University Council expired in April 2012, the institution is now calling for applications from qualified persons to fill up the vacancies.

Kyambogo University spokesperson Lawrence Madete says that the university is receiving names from constituencies to the council and any member who wants to represent his/her constituency to the council is free to do so.

We have been told that some members of the former university executive are likely to bounce back but still the university wants to recruit more new members. Madete says that Kyambogo University is ready to welcome whoever comes to work at their institution of learning.

The members on the 23 member Kyambogo University council are drawn from Institute of Professional Engineers, government, National Union of Disabled Persons of Uganda, academic and non-teaching staff and students’ guild and they serve a four- year renewable term.
