“In partnering with Limkokwing University of Creative Technology which is Malaysia’s most globally-successful university, my government seeks to tap from its refreshingly different approach to tertiary education. An approach which has contributed to the social economic transformation in Botswana, Lesotho, and Swaziland—the three African countries where it is established. The opening of the Limkokwing University campus will help meet our country’s high demand for graduates in the field of digital technology.”
Dr Ernest Bai Koroma
President of Sierra Leone
Since 2008, the Government of Sierra Leone has been fostering efforts and paving way for the establishment of universities to provide quality and affordable education for its youth.
The Government is committed to improving all sectors with the implementation of programmes as part of its continuous responses to global demands for human capital.
In March 2017, Limkokwing University had the honour of becoming Sierra Leone’s first foreign University.
The President of Sierra Leone, Dr. Ernest Bai Koroma said Limkokwing University will assist the country to tap into new approaches to transforming the socio- economic development through producing job creators than job seekers.
Today, the Limkokwing campus in Freetown offers diplomas and degrees in many fields, including Tourism Management, Entrepreneurship, and International Business, with thousands of students being equipped with the skills needed to bring their nation forward.
