Makerere is a collegiate University and has a number Colleges, schools, departments, centres etc.  Each is independent and self-governing.  Each runs and maintains its own website, each website will look different.

Pages that are primarily about University administration are managed by Public Relations Office.

The addresses will look like this: www.governance.mak.ac.ug/name/ or www.vc.mak.ac.ug/name/

In total there are more than one hundred and fifty sites that together make up the University's overall web presence.  This means that there will be neither visual nor organisational consistency but that there will be individuality, independence and ingenuity in abundance, characteristics that the Makerere University is renowned for and has always encouraged.
