Uganda Christian University will launch the UCU School of Medicine (UCUSoM) on September 14th, 2018 at the Archbishop’s Gardens in Namirembe.
The function will be officiated by Rt. Hon. Ruhakana Rugunda, the Prime Minister of the Republic of Uganda according to Micheal Mubangizi, UCU Public relations officer.
UCU School of Medicine is composed of sixty two (62) pioneer students. They include 35 female and 27 male students. They joined UCU on August 20th 2018 and started classes a week later on August 28th, 2018 following successful orientation sessions.
Their admission follows the accreditation of UCU to teach Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (MBchB) and Bachelor of Dental Surgery (BDS) in February 2018.
Majority of the students (53) are studying MBchB while 9 students are pursuing Bachelor of Dental Surgery.
The launch will also double as a fundraising for UCUSoM since the venture is expensive.
Mubangizi says that in attendance will be the Archbishop of the Church of Uganda and Chancellor Uganda Christian University (UCU) The Most Rev. Stanley Ntagali, UCU Vice Chancellor Rev. Canon Dr. John Senyonyi among other dignitaries.
