The University shipped 18 recycled laptops to Zomba Theological College in Malawi this week, where they will be given to students studying for their MThs and PhDs.
Last year the University entered into a collaborative partnership with Zomba Theological College in Malawi in order to provide postgraduate theological education and training to ministers in Malawi, and to train three members of staff from the college to doctoral level so that they are able, in the future, to create and coordinate Masters and Doctoral programmes on their own.
Having the laptops will allow the students to access MyAberdeen, the resources of the University Library, and will enable them to prepare and submit their written work online.
Professors Kenneth Jeffrey and Andrew Clarke will travel to Zomba later this month in order to teach the first intensive week long module on Christian Leadership.
