Prof. Joseph Ngonzi opened his presentation by reflecting on MUSTās 36-year journey, from a one-Faculty university with 45 students and five staff to a six-Faculty institution with over 6,500 students, nearly 600 staff, 90 academic programs, and a national ranking of 3rd (Webometrics & AD Scientific Index).
He positioned his candidacy as building on this legacy to consolidate academic excellence and institutional growth.

Following the generous donation of new @ERC_resus training equipment, a session on Equipment Care and Maintenance was conducted.
This ensures that the new Advanced Life Support (ALS) dolls and Laerdal Resusci Anne QCPR manikins remain functional for high-quality, long-term resuscitation training in Western Uganda.

Dr. Ssebutinde Peter, the DHO-Mbarara, praised the @MbararaUST 's expansion but stressed the need to improve the system in tandem with the training.
The DHO confirmed that the national structure is being revised to include the position of an Emergency Physician (EP) at the General Hospital level, ensuring trained graduates will have a designated place to work, demonstrating a commitment to implementing the training.
