Health Services
The university has a clinic under qualified doctors and other trained workers. It attends to students and other university workers. Complicated cases are referred to Mbarara Regional Referral Hospital. And the student’s guardians/parents are informed.
Faith Practices
The University uses The Chapel of the Good Shepherd which is at the same time the University Chapel. First, the chapel binds the university community together and students are asked to be actively involved in all chaplaincy services.
Secondly, students are reminded that they are worshiping the Lord God for spiritual growth irrespective of their courses of study. This helps students to realize that in the near future they are going to be responsible workers who “know the way, show the way and go the way”. Other groups that belong to different denominations also have their places of worship.
