Makerere University students brace yourselves. As the university opens on 2nd January, students will be about 28 days away from their final examinations! The university has released new dates for completion of the 2016/17 1st and 2nd semesters and set a date for the 67th graduation ceremony following last week’s decision to re-open the institution.

According to a statement from the University Vice Chancellor Prof. John Ddumba-Ssentamu, all members of staff should resume work immediately while students should report on Monday January 2, 2017 to complete the first Semester. Graduation is set for February 21-24.

The university was closed by President Yoweri Museveni on November 1 after student riots following a strike by lecturers over unpaid incentives. Following a decision last week by the lecturers under Makerere University Academic Staff Association (MUASA) to call off the strike to enable a Visitation Committee look into their affairs, Education and Sports Minister Janet Museveni announced President Museveni’s decision for the university to open.
