University vice-chancellor Prof Deo Janganyi unveiled the theme of the contract as: “Utilization of Maximum Institutional Capacity for Optimal Performance and Sustainability”.
Prof Jaganyi said that the performance contract is a commitment by the University’s top management to the council and aims to ensure that they offer quality services to the community through quality learning.

Optimal performance will enable the university to unlock the door to higher education for more learners.
