Prof. Maghembe urged HKMU to think seriously about increasing the number of enrolled students because of the big demand of health professionals, especially doctors and nurses, in society, and also due to the increasing number of students completing high schools compared with the enrolment capacity of higher learning institutions in the country.

HKMU, together with over 50 higher learning institutions from in and outside the country, participated in the Third Exhibitions in Higher Education, Science, and Technology, organised by The Tanzania Commission for Universities (TCU).

The theme for this year’s exhibition was “Better Life for all Through Higher Education, Science, and Technology”. During the occasion HKMU displayed some of its new facilities used for research, teaching and learning, and also general information about the University, so as to market its activities and publicize its image.

HKMU was represented by Mr. Stanslaus Ngadaya (Principal Librarian), Mr. David Mbelwa (Chief Laboratory Technologist), Ms. Linda Madete (Admissions Officer), Mr. Ivan Karkada (Representative of the Faculty of Medicine), Ms. Minael Omari (Representative of the Faculty of Nursing), Dr. Julius Kibbassa (Consultant/Physician), and Mr. Abraham Mwalugeni (Marketing and Public Relations Officer). 8 HKMU Newsletter Volume 4, June 2008 Hon.
