The Private Sector Union (PSU) has requested admission and staffing records from Kampala International University (KIU) relating to its pharmacy programmes, Uganda Radionetwork reported on Thursday, 5 November 2026. According to the outlet, the request follows concerns that the university may have enrolled more pharmacy students than its capacity allows.
Uganda Radionetwork did not publish further details of the request, including which specific records were sought or how the university has responded. The report also did not say what prompted the over-enrolment concerns or who raised them.
The development puts attention on how pharmacy training places are allocated and supervised at KIU, one of Uganda's private universities. The records request suggests the union wants documentary evidence on both student intake and the teaching staff available to handle it.
It is not yet clear whether the PSU has set a deadline for the university to provide the files, or whether the matter could be referred to a regulator. Uganda Radionetwork's report did not indicate any response from KIU.
What to watch next: whether KIU releases the requested admission and staffing records, and whether the PSU or education authorities take any formal step based on what those records show.
