Publisher's Synopsis
Makerere University was first established as a colonial university and its challenge is to consolidate and improve on previous bold eforms. The Partnership for Higher Education in Africa commissioned case studies of higher education provision in Tanzania, Uganda, Kenya, Mozambique, Nigeria, Ghana and South Africa, as part of its effort to stimulate enlightened, equitable, and knowledge-based national development, and to provide guides to understanding. Makerere University has shown tremendous resilience from its establishment as a colonial university, through the economic hardships, political instability and mismanagement that began in the 1970s. It has embarked on an impressive road to recovery involving numerous bold reforms. The challenge now is to harness, sustain, improve and consolidate these changes. In association with Partnership for Higher Education in Africa; Uganda: Fountain Publishers
