The UBBS had developed from the Pius XII Catholic University College at Roma – so our history has quite deep roots. UNESWA achieved its independent status as a fully-fledged University in 1982. Since achieving university status, UNESWA has continued to grow and to develop in accordance with its stated aim of assisting national development. Student enrolment in accordance has risen steadily, paralleled by an ever-increasing output of graduates since the University’s first Congregation for the conferment of Degrees in 1982. In all 20545 degrees have been conferred, 1156 of them at the 2019 Graduation. The chief mandate, which the university has tried to implement, is human resource production. This is clearly indicated in the type of programmes selected at the beginning, which still constitute a major part of UNESWA programmes. -

Civil Engineering Education at Juba University, South Sudan and University of Florida
AC 2009-238: CIVIL ENGINEERING EDUCATION AT JUBA UNIVERSITY, SOUTH SUDAN AND UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA Richard Nyarsuk, University of Florida Richard is a graduate student at the University of Florida. Fazil Najafi, University of Florida Nick Safai, Salt Lake City College Page 14.324.1 Page © American Society for Engineering Education, 2009 CIVIL ENGINEERING EDUCATION AT THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA AND THE UNIVERSITY OF JUBA, SOUTHERN SUDAN Abstract Civil engineering is a professional engineering discipline that encompasses design, construction and maintenance of infrastructure. It is the oldest engineering disciplines after military engineering. Unlike the other disciplines, it is both an art and science that could be traced back to the early civilization (4000 to 2000 BC) in Ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia. And it is a science that makes man and nature live in harmony. It has moved through a number of technological interfaces to reach its current stage. To maintain its integrity, it is imperative that the curricula be regularly revised to meet the ever-demanding economical, social and environmental needs of the society. In most universities, civil engineering under graduate program is four years. University of Juba has five years undergraduate program. The College of Engineering at the University of Florida has 11 academic departments while the College of Engineering at the University of Juba has 5 different departments. These two institutions have different undergraduate requirements both in terms of credit hours and number of semesters. The curriculum leading to the Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering degree at the University of Florida consists of 131 credit hours, while University of Juba consists of 211 credit hours. -

However, due to the nascent level of the industry, there is limited and scattered information on what is taking place in the microfinance industry in Uganda. This Microfinance Industry Assessment study tries to compile information on various issues on the microfinance industry and gives an over-view of the general financial sector in Uganda, development and trends in the microfinance industry and issues on regulation of the sector. It provides a wealth of information and knowledge on what microfinance in Uganda is all about, how it fits into the overall financial sector and the role of various stakeholders in the industry. As a national Network for Ugandan microfinance practitioners and stakeholders, the Association of Microfinance Institutions of Uganda (AMFIU), has been involved in all the different stages of development of the MF industry. -
