Africa-Press – Uganda. <\/strong><\/span>President Museveni has cautioned university graduates against the temptation of getting rich faster through corruption.<\/p>\n

\u201cAvoid 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 he told Ndejje University graduands in a speech delivered by the Vice President , Ms Jessica Alupo, at the weekend.<\/p>\n

The President said even with the increased access to higher education, the gross enrolment ratio (GER) of slightly more than six percent in Uganda still falls below the one of East Africa which is 9 percent and 25 percent globally.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am pleased to lay the foundation stone for the medical school and health teaching hospital, Ndejje University is now moving into 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 he said.<\/p>\n

Online learning<\/p>\n

Prof Eriabu Lugujjo, the vice chancellor, said the graduates were forced to rapidly adjust to the new normal that encourages on-line learning due to the Covid-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n

\u201cNdejje University has successfully adapted to the new normal learning systems to sustain all its programmes,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Although science programmes remain a challenge for privately-owned universities, Prof Luggujo said Ndejje has managed to come up with innovations that include the robotics, automated irrigation system, agro-processing units, and electrical automobile assembled by the learners.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe humbly appeal to the government through its respective department, including the Uganda Communications Commission to extend the national fibre network to boost the Internet connectivity at the university. We need a 7km network fibre cable extended to Ndejje University,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Earlier, the Uganda Communications Commission Executive Director, Ms Irene Kaggwa Ssewankambo, hinted on the creation of an enabling environment for education institutions that are handling innovations and research.<\/p>\n
