University Registrar Office
If one needs a job at MUBAS, they will have to go through the MUBAS registrar, but that is not all. The holder of the office of the registrar has the main responsibility of providing the university with academic administration, human resources management, general administration and student welfare services. In short, the registrar works with his assistants to follow up on the nitty-gritty details that make the university run.
The registrar reports to the Vice-Chancellor and oversees the following officers: Assistant Registrar (Academic), Assistant Registrar (Human Resources), Assistant Registrar (Administration), Assistant Registrar (Student Welfare), and the Estates Development Officer. Effectively, this is the management office with the broadest purview.
With respect to human resources, the office of the registrar coordinates the recruitment process of university staff, sees to staff welfare matters, coordinates staff development plans, supervises and appraises staff, and oversees management of staff contracts. Administratively, the registrar attends to legal matters and coordinates the welfare issues of the university. On the academic front, the registrar’s office works in conjunction with the Vice-Chancellor’s office on academic procedures related to educating and graduating students from the various programs at MUBAS.
Concomitantly, the registrar also works with the Vice-Chancellor to manage the university by ensuring the availability of funds for the day-to-day running of MUBAS, which may involve representing the university at various fora and to disparate stakeholders. The responsibility of being the registrar, necessarily, entails a fair amount of monitoring and evaluating to see that programs are executed well and on time, and to maintain fiscal discipline. The registrar also works through the office of the estates development officer to take care of the infrastructural needs of the university.
