A group of former Kyambogo University students who graduated under government sponsorship in 2019 are accusing the university of failing to resolve a long-running dispute over their academic qualification, a dispute they say has left them unable to secure jobs and uncertain about their professional future.
The graduates, admitted in 2017 through the Joint Admissions Board system under a Ministry of Education and Sports scholarship scheme, say they were enrolled for a teaching pathway in Physical Education and Sports Management.
But upon graduation, they were awarded a Diploma in Sports Management, a change they insist was never clearly communicated or consented to. Now, nearly seven years later, the former students say the matter remains unresolved, despite complaints to the university, the National Council for Higher Education, and other government offices.
