Message from Vice Chancellor
I welcome you to Somali International University. I am sure your time spent with us will be rewarding and pleasant.
Somali International University has total commitment to the achievement of excellence in education, guidance, and training. Our prime aim is to provide an environment which is stimulating, enterprising and conducive to research culture and learning experience.
We are living in a contemporary world of progress and innovation, where the keys to success lie with the ability to create new knowledge and discover new ideas. Everything we know about today's economy, technology, engineering, global competitiveness, health and social well-being tells us that investment in our human capital, particularly in the higher education of our citizens, is one of the most important investments we can make.
A university education provides students with more than just a body of knowledge or an area of expertise. It provides the tools for a life of continuous learning, the skills of creativity, problem-solving and leadership. Never has a university education been more important or valuable than it is today.
Our commitment to our students is unrelenting. Over the last 7 years, we have invested heavily in enhancing the student experience, including a step that no other university in the country has ever taken.
We have partnered with the country's top hospitals to provide a learning environment for our students. We currently own a vast designed Engineering Lab, Computer Labs, Clinical Laboratories and Human Anatomy Dissection.
We have also opened the postgraduate center in partnership with Kenyatta University and English Language and Communication Skills Center in partnership with Makerere University.
The Somali International University represents a new generation of universities. It is drawn from the past and is designed for the future, but it lives and breathes in the present. Through Somali International University, students became vitally connected to the world they inhabit - a world of ideas, challenges and possibilities.
The university will create a new model for higher education where course choice is borderless. Students will be able to study courses run in universities in other countries without travelling.
I invite you to become part of our mission and build for yourself a bright future with promise and potential.
