ST AUGUSTINEÂ INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY(SAIU)
BACKGROUND
SAIU was started to provide quality education to students, education that would be comparable to what other universities internationally offer. Education that would turn the students into ethical individuals who not only seek employment but create jobs. St. Augustine International University was founded to advance the cause of learning and research and take its place among the great universities of the world. SAIU was started by a group of like minded individuals who have a passion for delivering quality higher education in Uganda and together constitute the Board of Trustees. The Board of Trustees are very central to the health and welfare of the University. They ensure that the University is capable of accomplishing its mission and vision for current and future generations. SAIU is structured into four colleges, each of which is divided into a number of schools and departments. The five colleges are Law and Business, Agriculture and Veterinary Medicine, Engineering and Information Sciences and finally Health, Medical and Life Sciences. This college structure enables interdisciplinary collaboration since there are fewer administrative boundaries between disciplines and operational relationships in curricula, teaching and learning, and research.
