Amid reports that developments at the Botswana International University of Science and Technology (BIUST) in Palapye have stalled, the council has stepped-up the pace by recruiting a founding vice chancellor.

Speaking to Mmegi yesterday, project coordinator Badumetse Hubona said the BIUST council has engaged Academic Partners, a South African recruiting agency, to hire the vice chancellor. The agency has since advertised the post in newspapers in Botswana and South Africa.
