It is a matter of pride and satisfaction to introduce you to University of Benadir
which, within a few years, has grown into a reputable institution in Somalia. The
University is recognized by World Health Organization (WHO) as a Medical Education
Provider in Somalia.
The civil war in Somalia has deprived the Somali children of their rights to education.
Thanks to the Somali intellectuals who, after feeling the need to revitalize the
country’s educational system, established educational institutions. Otherwise, a
number of Somali generations would have been lost.
Benadir University is the result of such endeavors. It is remarkable that the founders
of this university had the vision and courage to lay the foundation stone for an
academic institution that would contribute to the development of the country.
Despite the hardships faced, the University has grown remarkably and learned from
its experience. Started with a single faculty, Faculty of Medicine, the University
of Benadir currently has the following faculties: Faculty of Medicine, Faculty of
Engineering and Technology, Faculty of Education, and Faculty of Computer Science
& Information Technology.
I congratulate the members of the faculty, administrative staff and the students
for working in unison. It is due to their efforts that Benadir University enjoys
its high reputation. To the new students, I look forward to welcoming you to Benadir
University.
Dr. Mohammed Moallim Muse MD
President
