Both departments were also encouraged to optimize collaborative networks to support the faculty’s reputation.
Beyond academic matters, the leadership also shared updates on policies related to the welfare of faculty members and educational staff, plans for improving facilities and infrastructure, and commitments to strengthening governance through the Integrity Zone initiative and compliance with performance reporting. The roadshow also provided an open platform for departments to convey their real challenges and operational needs.
