What is Wachemo University recruiting for?
Tikvah University reported on Tikimt 17, 2019 E.C. (27 October 2026) that Wachemo University wants to appoint a president through a competitive selection of candidates. The post is a leadership role, and the selection follows Ministry of Education directive number 1146/2018 on appointing presidents of public higher education institutions.
The university's advert ran in the Addis Zemen newspaper from Tikimt 14, 2019 E.C. (24 October 2026). The 22 working days for applications count from that day, the report says.
Who can apply for the post?
The advert is open to candidates with experience from higher education institutions, government organisations and non-government organisations. The report does not set out the minimum requirements in its text. They appear in an image attached to the university's post.
According to the report, only candidates who meet the minimum requirements listed in that image are invited to apply.
