Principal Prof. Moses Muhwezi commended support staff for their dedication, noting that the university’s growing student population requires increased commitment and efficiency. “MUBS now has a large student body, and this means we have to work very hard.

Responsible financial management is key to long-term security,” he added. In addition to financial responsibility, he urged staff to maintain high standards of professionalism, including punctuality, appropriate attire, and excellent customer service. “Support staff are often the first point of contact for our students and stakeholders. Always represent MUBS well, respect one another, and avoid actions that could jeopardize your employment. If issues arise, communicate openly, and we are always ready to listen,” Prof. Muhwezi emphasized.
