The Chancellor Victoria University, Prof.John Opuda Asibo, has called for continuous review of education curriculum by incorporating Artificial Intelligence (AI) in all courses so as to match with the emerging technological advancement in the world. He made the call while presiding over the 10th Graduation ceremony, which saw 2,559 students graduate in different fields with 53% graduating in science courses. This year’s Graduation ceremony was organized under the theme:”The relevant courses for relevant skills.
Prof. Opuda urged students not to despise the power of their knowledge but to articulate their knowledge and expertise in execution of their duties.
He asked students to avoid being flamboyant by reflecting on what they talk and how they write ,so as to demonstrate their true academic excellence.
He also appealed to students to avoid debts but instead develop a saving culture by avoiding unnecessary spending on luxuries.
The Vice Chancellor Victoria University, Dr. Lawrence Muganga, revealed that all the graduands were exposed to Artificial Intelligence (AI) and are digitally competent enough, urging them to offer employers productivity.
” By 2040, the country is likely to see 10 billion robots working alongside human beings . The robots that are coming and those already in existence don’t have a single human being trained to manage them. Therefore, graduates are confronted by non-humans and some of them have replaced five people in the company where we work, ” Dr. Muganga said.
Dr. Muganga added: ” Today Artificial Intelligence has created the most wealthy companies in the world ,with 88% of the big companies in the world using AI.
The Chairperson University Council , Dr.Joseph Biribonwa, noted that Victoria University remains committed to offer quality education to students. On this note, he reminded students that their success will depend on how effectively they apply their knowledge in the field.
Dr.Birinonwa, challenged students to create opportunities, and to have confidence so as to become entrepreneurs and innovators.
” Resilience will strengthen you when circumstances become hard. Your achievement should be more of improving lives of others. And your education should be reflected in your quality of work, ” Dr. Biribonwa challenged students.
Dr. Biribonwa further urged students to create opportunities, serve with a purpose and leave a positive mark in the community.
The Assistant Commissioner in charge of teacher and curriculum implementation at the Ministry of Education and sports , Dr. Safina Mutumba, appealed to graduands to be practical in the field by demonstrating the knowledge and skills acquired at the University.
