Prof. Dr. Jasper Watson Ogwal- Okeng
Message from The Vice Chancellor
Dear partners, clients, alumni, prospective students, visitors and friends. I have the honour to welcome you to this great Institution. The Parliament of Uganda established Lira University as the 8th Public University in Uganda, under Statutory Instrument number 35 of 2015.
As a public university we envision being “A BEACON CENTRE OF APPLIED SCIENCES AND TECHNOLOGY” and we shall get there by providing access to quality higher education, professional training, research and innovations for the delivery of appropriate services directed towards community transformation and conservation of biodiversity.
