Limpopo Univ, UTAMU Strike Deal

South Africa’s University of Limpopo and Human Sciences Research Council of South Africa have joined Mbarara University of Science and Technology (MUST) and Uganda Technology and Management University (UTAMU) partnership.

The two South African higher institutions of learning say their decision to join the partnership (MUST-UTAMU) is driven by the collaboration to harness research and development on the African continent more broadly particularly through the already existing MUST-UTAMU PhD programme.

Over eighty (80) students have already been admitted to this PhD programme and the collaboration is aimed at giving support to these students.
