Assessment of Ruforum Member Universities in Uganda ASSESSMENT OF RUFORUM MEMBER UNIVERSITIES IN UGANDA Daniel Kitone, Lang Gao, and Nienke Beintema October 2018 BACKGROUND Credible quantitative and qualitative information on existing capacities in agricultural higher education agencies in Africa are important for decisionmakers at national, regional, and international levels. Decisionmakers require data and indicators for strategic planning, policy formulation, setting priorities and benchmarks, measuring progress toward benchmarks, and identifying capacity gaps. Decisionmakers need a better understanding of the specifics of existing staffing and student capacities in the higher education sector, as well as in the wider agricultural innovation systems in Africa south of the Sahara. Access to such information will result in better policies addressing capacity issues in agricultural higher education, research, extension, and other areas. The existence of such information, however, remains extremely limited. To fill this data gap, the International Food Policy Research Institute’s Agricultural Science and Technology Indicators (ASTI/IFPRI) and the Regional Universities Forum for Capacity Building in Agriculture (RUFORUM) initiated a partnership to pilot the collection of this type of data for RUFORUM’s member universities. During phase I of the collaboration, ASTI/IFPRI and RUFORUM developed and launched a prototype of the the Portal on Agricultural Capacity in RUFORUM Universities. Phase II, which is currently being implemented, aims to further develop and launch the portal, and to obtain more detailed quantitative and qualitative information for RUFORUM member universities in Kenya and Uganda. This report summarizes the findings of the in-depth assessment for Uganda. TEACHING STAFF TRENDS The general ASTI survey round comprises 15 agricultural higher education agencies in Uganda. These include various agricultural faculties and other agriculture-related units at the 7 RUFORUM member universities, as well as a small number of non-RUFORUM universities and other higher education agencies. The quantitative overview in this report comprises seven RUFORUM member universities with relevant colleges, faculties, schools, or departments (noting that Makerere University has three separate agriculture-related faculties, so the overall sample includes nine units: ✓ Busitema University, Faculty of Agriculture (BU-FA) ✓ Gulu University, Faculty of Agriculture and Environment (GUCCL-FAE) ✓ Kyambogo University, Faculty of Vocational Studies, Department of Agriculture (KYU-FVS-DA) ✓ Makerere University, College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences (MAK-CAES) ✓ Makerere University, College of Veterinary Medicine, Animal Resources, and Biosecurity (MAK-COVAB) ✓ Makerere University, College of Natural Sciences, School of Biosciences (MAK-CONAS-SBS) ✓ Ndejje University, Faculty of Environment and Agricultural Sciences (NU-FAES) ✓ Uganda Christian University, Faculty of Science and Technology, Department of Agricultural and Biological Sciences (UCU-FOST-DABS) ✓ Uganda Martyrs University, Faculty of Agriculture (UMU-FA) ABOUT ASTI/IFPRI AND RUFORUM ASTI/IFPRI Agricultural Science and Technology Indicators (ASTI) is widely recognized as the authoritative source of information on the status and direction of agricultural research systems in low- and middle-income countries. Facilitated by the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI), the program functions through collaborative alliances with national research agencies, regional coordinating bodies, and international institutions. ASTI’s mission is to support improved decisionmaking through high-quality data, research, and analyses; to disseminate the results of its analyses to promote advocacy and support policymaking; and to build national and regional capacity for data collection and analysis. RUFORUM RUFORUM is a network of 85 universities in 36 African countries. RUFORUM’s mandate is primarily to strengthen the quality and relevance of postgraduate training and research in African universities—especially in agriculture, science, technology, and innovation. As such, RUFORUM engages in activities including benchmarking, tracer studies, and capacity building aimed at improving the capacity of African universities and research centers to generate knowledge relevant to Africa’s development challenges. Makerere University is Uganda’s oldest university involved in agricultural sciences. A number of new universities were established after 2000, including Busitema University, Gulu University, and Ndejje University. In 2016, the nine sample units accounted for a combined 83 percent of the teaching staff employed at Uganda’s 15 agriculture-related higher education agencies. Total teaching capacity among the RUFORUM members in Uganda ranged from 15 staff at NU-FEAS and UNU-FA to more than 150 at MAK-CAES and BU-FA (Figure 1). The share of teaching staff with PhD degrees also differed widely. With shares 48, 72, and 73 percent, the three MAK faculties employed relatively more PhD-qualified teaching staff, as well as employing no teaching staff only qualified to the BSc- degree level. In contrast, only 13 percent of the teaching staff at NU-FAES and 16 percent of the teaching staff at BU-FA were trained to the PhD-degree level. Figure 1.

In general, the higher education agencies reported a relatively well-balanced distribution of teaching staff by age (Figure 2). Overall, one- third of the teaching staff with PhD degrees were in their 50s and 60s, but the share for BU-FA was particularly high. As a result, 74 percent of the PhD-qualified teaching staff at BU-FA will retire in the next 10 to 15 years. Figure 2. Total and PhD-qualified teaching staff by age, 2016 a. All teaching staff b.

The majority of teaching staff are lecturers and senior lecturers; about a quarter are deans, department heads, or (assistant) professors (Figure 3). MAK-COVAB employed a comparatively high number of assistant lecturers and teaching assistants. –2– Figure 3.

Female professors and other teaching staff offer different insights from their male counterparts, so it is important for higher education agencies to employ a balance of male and female lecturers. With 47 percent of its teaching staff being female in 2016, only NU-FAES approached gender parity overall (Table 1). In comparison, BU-FA and GUCCL-FAE reported relatively low shares of female teaching staff (15 and 10 percent, respectively). One in four teaching staff was female at the three MAK faculties, whereas the ratio was one to three for the other agencies in the sample. In general, female teaching staff were younger and less qualified compared with their male counterparts. Table 1.

METHODOLOGY In collaboration with the ASTI/IFPRI team, ASTI’s country focal points (that is, points of contact) at the Uganda’s National Agricultural Research Organisation (NARO) and the Kenya Agricultural and Livestock Research Organization (KALRO) developed a checklist to capture qualitative and quantitative information from RUFORUM member universities in both countries (Appendix A). The information captured was in addition to other data collected during ASTI’s regular 2017– 2018 survey round, administered to all higher education agencies in Uganda. The information included, but was not limited to the following categories: • Data management • Research outputs and their dissemination • Influence of research in the community • Student trends and motivations • Capacity building plans for students • Benefits of being members of RUFORUM and suggested ways of improvement In Uganda, deans and chairs of faculties and departments relevant to ASTI were interviewed by a team comprising Lang Gao (ASTI/IFPRI) and Daniel Kitone (NARO). –3– In order to fulfill teaching and research mandates effectively, it is important for higher education agencies to have a well-balanced pool of researchers, not only in terms of qualification levels, age distribution, and gender, but also in terms of disciplines. Except for MAK-COVAB, the RUFORUM member universities’ overall focus was agricultural and, as a result, the teaching staff employed by most agencies was qualified across a wide variety of disciplines (Table 2).

  • Higher Education Solutions Network (HESN) 2.0 Programs Bi-Annual Performance Report Narrative
    Higher Education Solutions Network (HESN) 2.0 Programs Bi-Annual Performance Report Narrative 1. BACKGROUND LASER PULSE is a five-year USAID-funded consortium, led by Purdue University and also comprising Catholic Relief Services, Indiana University, Makerere University, and the University of Notre Dame. LASER PULSE supports the research-to-translation value chain through a global network of 1,000+ researchers, government agencies, non-governmental organizations, and the private sector for research-driven, practical solutions to critical development challenges in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). LASER supports the discovery and uptake of research-sourced, evidence-based solutions to development challenges spanning all USAID technical sectors and global geographic regions. The LASER PULSE strategy ensures that applied research is co-designed with development practitioners, and results in solutions that are useful and usable. LASER does this by involving development practitioners upfront - from topic selection, research question definition, conducting and testing research, and developing translation products for immediate use. We support this process with capacity building and technical assistance to enable the researcher/user partnerships to function effectively. 2. MAJOR MILESTONES / ACHIEVEMENTS 1. Researcher Capacity:​ Makerere University had an opportunity to engage with ​USAID Uganda’s Regional Development Initiative​.​ ​The team accompanied the Uganda Regional Development Initiative team on several visits, to provide feedback on working with local universities in order to enhance their role in the path to self-reliance. This is a model that can be replicated in other countries and regions. The collaboration (Makerere and RDI) has resulted in a new buy-in opportunity for Makerere to work with regional universities in strengthening resilience for indigenous Ugandan groups).

  • Strategic Profiles of the International Dimension in Universities in Uganda Ronald Bisaso and Florence Nakamanya
    Strategic Profiles of the International Dimension in Universities in Uganda Ronald Bisaso and Florence Nakamanya Abstract This article is based on a study that explored the nature of and variations in strategic profiles of internationalisation in universities in Uganda. Six universities, comprising of three public and three private chartered uni- versities with different histories and philosophies were selected for the study. Profiles of the international dimension were ascertained through a review and analysis of national and institutional strategic plans and reports. The findings highlight six profiles of internationalisation, namely, vision and mission, shared/core value, student enrolment, staff and student exchange, partnerships and collaborations, and the management structure. It is imperative that universities integrate internationalisation as an ethos that is systematically mainstreamed in all activities, produce knowledge relevant to local and international audiences, and improve the manage- ment structure by deploying managerial capacity that corresponds to the strategic period. The article recommends that further research should be conducted on profiles of the international dimension. Key words: internationalisation, international dimension, strategic pro- files, university, Uganda Ce article se fonde sur une étude qui a exploré la nature de et les variations dans les profils stratégiques d’internationalisation dans les universités en Ouganda.

Sewankambo‡‡‡ and Marietjie De Villiers§§ MEPI was a $130 million competitively awarded grant by President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) and National Institutes of Health (NIH) to 13 Medical Schools in 12 Sub-Saharan African coun- tries and a Coordinating Centre (CC). Implementation was led by Principal investigators (PIs) from the grantee institutions supported by Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), NIH and the CC from September, 2010 to August, 2015. The goals were to increase the capacity of the awardees to pro- duce more and better doctors, strengthen locally relevant research, promote retention of the graduates within their countries and ensure sustainability. MEPI ignited excitement and stimulated a broad range of improvements in the grantee schools and countries. Through in-country consortium arrangements African PIs expanded the programme from the 13 grantees to over 60 medical schools in Africa, creating vibrant South–South and South–North partnerships in medical education, and research. Grantees revised curricular to competency based models, created medical education units to upgrade the quality of education and established research support centres to promote institutional and collaborative research.

  • African Agricultural and Life Science Universities in the Present And
    African Agricultural and Life Science Universities in the present and future Adipala Ekwamu and Anthony Egeru Regional Universities Forum for Capacity Building in Agriculture (RUFORUM), P.O. Box 16811, Wandegeya-Kampala, Uganda Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract There is a recognition that higher education has a catalytic role in expanding opportunities; employment, business and entrepreneurship owing to innovation potential resident in the universities. Trends in the present bring to the fore that the future of agriculture is about science, technology and innovation and higher education institutions are better positioned to propel a knowledge driven growth. In this article we report that agricultural and life science universities like other higher education institutions in Africa have seen an increase in student enrollment. However, this enrolment was not matched with corresponding investments in the staffing, infrastructure and associated services. One of the effects of these unmatched investments is high student-faculty ratio, low capacity of the universities to deliver high quality training in particular output of doctoral level graduates which is impacting the number of PhD level trained faculty in many universities. This deficit in PhD level qualified staff in the continent is costly; it is indicated that Africa spends approximately US$4 billion annually on salaries of western experts that help to fill the gap in the supply of professionals. However, this does not mean that everything in the continent is on a sloppy side of things, there are successes registered amidst these prevailing constraints for example the ability of the universities to innovate agricultural training programmes beyond what they inherited from colonial times.
