  • 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).

  • Of Independent Public Universities in Mombasa, Kenya Kevin Brennan
    A History of the Absence (and Emergent Presence) of Independent Public Universities in Mombasa, Kenya Kevin Brennan A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the School of Education. Chapel Hill 2008 Approved by: George Noblit Julius Nyang‟oro James Trier Richard Rodman Gerald Unks © 2008 Kevin Brennan ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii Abstract Kevin Brennan A History of the Absence (and Emergent Presence) of Independent Public Universities in Mombasa, Kenya (Under the direction of George Noblit and Julius Nyang‟oro) While there is a great deal of literature available about schooling in Kenya and a good deal of writing about the establishment of Kenya‟s public university system there is a significant gap in the literature when it comes to describing and analyzing why certain areas of the country had long been removed from any on-site development of independent university opportunities. This study is an attempt to offer a history of an educational institution – an independent public university at the coast in Kenya – that does not yet exist. This longstanding absence took several significant steps toward transforming to a presence in 2007, when several university colleges were created at the coast. This transformation from absence to presence is a central theme in this work. The research for this project, broadly defined, took place over a seventeen year period and is rooted in both the author‟s professional experience as an educator working in Kenya in the early 1990s as well as his academic interests in comparative and international higher education.

  • 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. Six universités, composées de trois publiques et trois privées agréées, avec des histoires et des philosophies différentes, ont été sélec- tionnées pour l’étude.

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.

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.
