Avoid the temptation of getting rich quickly through corrupt means. You are encouraged to use the available opportunities and the hands-on skills acquired to cause transformation,\u201d Mr Museveni advised the over 1500 Ndejje University graduates in his speech presented by the Vice President of Uganda, Ms Jessica Alupo on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Museveni said even with the increased access to higher education, the Gross Enrollment Ratio (GER) of slightly more than 6 per cent in Uganda still falls below the one of East Africa which is 9 per cent and 25 per cent globally.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAm pleased to lay the foundation stone for the medical school and health teaching hospital. Ndejje University is now moving in the right direction in line with the government strategy of providing the necessary human capital development to transform the country. This is the way to go,\u201d the President said.<\/p>\n<p>Prof Eriabu Lugujjo, the Vice-Chancellor said that the more than 1,500 graduates are part of the bigger section of the learners world over that were forced to rapidly adjust to the new learning method that encourages online learning in line with the challenges brought about by the Covid-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNdejje University has successfully adapted to the new normal learning systems to sustain all its programmes,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Although science programmes remain a big challenge for privately owned universities, Prof Luggujo said Ndejje has managed to come up with many innovations including; robotics, automated irrigation system, agro-processing units, electrical automobile assembled by the learners.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe humbly appeal to the government through its respective department including the Uganda Communications Commission to help extend the national fiber network to boost the internet connectivity at the university. We need a 7km network fiber cable extended to Ndejje University,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier, the Uganda Communications Commission Executive Director, Ms Irene Kaggwa Sewankambo, hinted at the creation of an enabling learning environment for education institutions that are handling innovations and research to have the ICT at the center of service delivery enhanced.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cModern higher learning and the new normal learning that has come with challenges is now the way to go. The new learning curriculum emphasizes access to a variety of information sources. This calls for change in instruction modes and ICT-supported infrastructure for institutions. Modern ICTs coupled with better access to high bandwidth and access to sharable resources will greatly foster the attainment of quality education,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Recently, the National Information Technology Authority &#8211; Uganda (NITA-U) revealed that they had successfully established 4,000 kilometres of the national cable network reaching out to several areas to ensure stable internet connectivity with plans to establish convergence for internet access.<\/p>\n<p><b>[email protected]<\/b><\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/uganda\">Uganda<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Uganda.
