Weere, Busitema university currently doesnt offer a diploma in anaesthesia. Visit http://ugandaadmissions.com/2017-2018-busitema-university-diploma-entry-admissions/
I would like to join medicine but I have degree in nursing…which year will I join and fees structure…am akenyan..what is the conversion rate for kenya to uganda currency
Kevin, you are most likely to be enrolled into second year, tuition fees will be equivalent to a Ugandans tuition fee. BU administers an equivalent fee to Ugandans and students from any East African country.
I finished A’level with BCA and diploma in nursing can l be admitted for medicine and surgery under diploma holders program at bustema university medical school.
I would like to know weather u have this course diploma in medical radiography
