Students in the Faculty of Engineering and Technology- department of Engineering have started a three month internship program with the Marampa Mine Limited.

As an academic institution that is committed to training students to succeed in a competitive new world, this is an opportunity for students to translate their theoretical knowledge to practical applications of engineering knowledge.

Our teaching and learning models are designed for students to understand both theory and practice. This exposes them to critical thinking, research, problem solving coupled with the acquisition of soft skills.

A team of surgeons from the United States visited our campus today to appreciate the university’s commitment to providing quality education in Sierra Leone.

These surgeons had worked with our Nursing students in the Magburaka Government Hospital and were marveled by the level of dedication, professionalism and all-round ethical behaviors.

Their positive reviews about our students speaks volume to the vision of the faculty of Nursing as it “Seeks to become a center of excellence in Nursing Education”.

Today, we held the 2024/2025 academic year matriculation ceremony at our campus 10 Maforay Road, Lunsar.

Matriculation ceremony marks the official enrollment of students into the university after they have signed the university register.

The Vice Chancellor in his statement welcomed matriculants and reiterated the university’s commitment to providing modern teaching and learning resources needed to acquire quality education.

Our vision is to become a premier university in Teaching, Research and Community Service in the West- African sub- region.

We had the singular honor to host the Erasmus+ Mundus Information Session yesterday the 28th January, 2025.

Two main issues stood out during the Information Session- Capacity Building in Higher Education and the Erasmus Mundus Joint Masters scholarship.

The Erasmus+ Mundus is a European Union funded project that provides support to capacity building in HEIs with various categorization of strands; the EMJM that allows students to study in European countries. It also allows Credit Mobility in Africa.

It was a fruitful engagement filled with students, faculty and staff and the Vice Chancellor and Principal of the University of Lunsar.

Even during lunch hour, our Information Technology students take the opportunity to work on different I. T related projects that will increase their knowledge, skills and understanding of various aspects of technology.

This shows the serenity and flexibility of the learning environment where students are provided with the enabling environment to reach their full potential.

Applications for the Bachelors in Information Technology are still open. Visit our website: universityoflunsar.edu.sl to complete your application seamlessly or visit our campus at 10 Maforay Road, Lunsar.

Today, our department of Engineering continues to experience high in demand practical application of classroom knowledge to life by taking on a real-world task- surveying a 100- meter stretch of road from the university entrance to the main gate using a dumpy level.

This exercise will allow them to create a road profile (cross-section) and determine the formation level, essential for calculating the depth of cut or fill needed for future construction. What's more exciting is watching our second year students using Excel and MATLAB to draw the road profile. At the university of lunsar, we are redefining engineering education.

This re-affirms the university’s commitment in training students that will be able to compete not just locally, but internationally in a highly competitive and diverse work environment that demands practical application of skills.
