Amon Murwira

The Minister for Higher Education, Professor Murwira, has been a leading brain in applied research. What you are looking at is an enhancement of that ‘vocationalisation’ of Higher and Tertiary Education so that it has a practical bearing as a hatchet for solutions to the industrial question.
