Bobi Wine Among 650 Students to Graduate at Cavendish University Uganda.

 

 

Cavendish University Uganda prepares to welcome the former presidential candidate, opposition party president of the National Unity Platform, Hon. Robert Kyagulanyi Ssentamu ( Bobi Wine) to the literate community on its 13th graduation ceremony scheduled for 8th  August 

 

Hon. Dr. Chris Baryomunsi the Minister for Information Communication Technology is expected to preside over the ceremony as a chief guest amidst the presence of the former president of the Republic of Nigeria, Jonathan Goodluck who is the current Chancellor of the University, both shall grace the ceremony.

 

Addressing a media brief on Friday at the university headquarters in Kampala, the new Vice Chancellor Dr. Olive Sabiti explained that Kyagulanyi Robert Ssentamu has been a student at Cavendish University and has exhibited potential for academic excellence in the law course, the Bachelor of Laws.

“Kyagulanyi has been a good student throughout  the study period because I taught him myself before being promoted to the position of a Vice Chancellor. Because of his entertainment background, he was so interesting and social to his fellow colleagues in class, therefore, if he had not been examined and certified by the  university, there is no way he would have been part of the graduates of class 2024,”  she said.

 

Due to public demand, the university has also unveiled  three new courses on board, such as the Bachelor of Science in Data Science and Artificial Intelligence, the Diploma in Data Science and Analytics and the advanced Diploma in Health Leadership and Management, added Sabiti.

 

Mr. David Mutabanura, the Executive Director of the institute mentioned that they are also pleased to announce 25 scholarships for the upcoming semester that shall cover major expenses like tuition fees among others, based on academic performance and a few other requirements.

 

He however, included that the scholarships are a response to keeping the students’ need at the center of what Cavendish University does. At the moment, about 200 scholarships are on board and available, Mutabanura said.

 

Some of these scholarships are for example responding to the needs of the refugees in Uganda like that of the Gen. Riek Machar for Sudanese, the Benjamin Mkapa scholarship and others.
