MUBS Visiting Student Group
The third group of visiting students from Makerere University Business School (MUBS) is on campus until Feb. 12 for a week-long seminar on leadership. The contingent includes seven students and three faculty members. This group worked closely with many Drake students who traveled to Uganda last summer and will continue to engage with them, and those traveling to Uganda this summer, throughout the week. One of the highlights of the visit is that the group was introduced to the Iowa House Assembly by Rep. Zach Nunn, AS’02, and others on Feb. 6.

Tom’s goals for the visit include partnering with Tec entrepreneurship faculty to include virtual interactions between the two schools’ entrepreneurship students during an Innovation Week, which Tom has modeled after Tec’s program.
