The faculty of USIU-Africa is a highly qualified group of academics and professionals who are committed to finding innovative ways to meet the educational needs of USIU-Africa students. The university\u2019s full-time faculty is complemented by an extensive adjunct teaching staff and frequent visiting lecturers.
