Ndejje University (NDU) and Chiba University of Japan are exploring opportunities to strengthen their existing academic partnership following a meeting held today at the NDU Graduate School with Professor Michiko Takagaki, Senior Advisor for Academic Collaboration at Chiba University.
The meeting built on the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) and Student Exchange Agreement already signed by the two institutions, with discussions focusing on translating these agreements into practical academic and student exchange activities.
A key proposal is a two-day academic and cultural exchange programme at Ndejje University’s Luweero Campus in March 2027, tentatively scheduled for 9–10 March. The programme is expected to bring approximately four to five undergraduate students from Chiba University’s Faculties of Agriculture, Economics and Education.
With particular interest in Agriculture and Horticulture, the visiting students will have an opportunity to engage with Ndejje University’s Faculty of Environment and Agricultural Sciences through academic discussions, practical learning and knowledge exchange.
Ndejje University is exploring a programme that will combine academic engagement with cultural activities, sports, environmental experiences and interaction with the university community.
During the meeting, Professor Takagaki also shared his positive impressions of his previous visit to Ndejje University’s Luweero Campus, highlighting its green surroundings, natural environment and impressive sports facilities.
The proposed exchange represents an important step towards strengthening institutional relations, expanding international learning opportunities and translating the existing partnership between Ndejje University and Chiba University into meaningful student and academic engagement.
