Inspection of works kicks off

Published

on

On 29th January, 2013, the Estates and Works Department inspected ongoing works to check on the progress of places of convenience in the university. The inspection covered works in the departments of Physics, Agriculture, Arts, Social Sciences and Performing Arts and Film.
The inspection kicked off from the Physics Department under the guidance of Michael Musoke the Chief Technician and Dr. Ireeta Tumps a Lecturer in the Department. Similar complaints were raised in the College of Humanities and Social Sciences, with the members of staff requesting that the places of convenience be improved.  
The Physics Department was concerned that more work needed to be done in the places of convenience. “We would prefer the painting to retain the original theme colour of the building.”Dr. Tumps emphasized. He also completed and hard work of the Estates Department and was optimistic that the raised concerns would be addressed.
The Estates Department, represented by a team under the leadership of Edward Nkuuatsibuue, pledged to address the raised concerns. On a positive note, the College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences, CAES, was pleased with the renovation works – which have seen the places of convenience take on a new look. 
The Department of Performing Arts and Film, PAF, marked the final stop over of the inspection. This department has taken on an entirely magnificent look with its cream walls and doors, which were a surprise to all in attendance. On seeing the new PAF, the Principal Prof. Oswald Ndolereirwe, exclaimed, “this new PAF building is stunning!” He encouraged the Estates Department to maintain high standards in respect of the improved University rankings in East and Central Africa.
The works follow concerns from different university departments on the need to improve facilities. The Estates Department is looking at concluding the renovations works in two weeks, ahead of the start of the semester.
