UNAM ONLINE

Students at the University of Namibia (UNAM) have called on
management at the institution to consider introducing online
registration.
Most students spoken to, described this year’s registration as the worst ever.
Faculty of Humanities Dean Professor Kinso Mchombo said the
university was supposed to conduct online registration this year but was unable due to technicalities beyond the institution’s control compelling it to register students manually.

Professor Mchombo however assured students that the university will soon go online though it called for a lot of work and resources but was worth the effort.

UNAM is one of the few universities that is yet to go online in the (SADC) region.
