Higher Education Minister, Dr. Jessie Kabwila, on Wednesday visited private owned Exploits University Campus in Lilongwe, as part of her on-going efforts to assess and enhance the quality of higher education institutions in the country.
During the visit, Kabwila inspected the university’s facilities to ensure they are in good condition and meet the required standards for higher learning.
The minister also took time to interact with students, encouraging them to take an active implementation of the Malawi development blueprint – Vision 2063 Agenda.
During her visit, she addressed several key issues concerning student education, welfare, and institutional development.
In her speech, Kabwila emphasized the importance of ensuring that students receive quality education in a conducive learning environment.
Kabwila said she decided to embark on a journey to visit higher education institutions to evaluate how higher education is being administered.
Kabwila has since promised to enhance collaboration between government, and private and public universities to improve the overall higher education sector in Malawi.
Kabwila’s initiative signals the government’s commitment to improving education standards in the country and also fostering closer ties between government and institutions of higher learning.
