West East University Academic Calendar 2021/2022

The university was established as an initiative of Mr. Vernon Chilimunda in 2011. The idea was born from an experience in China during a short post-graduate course, after interacting with intellectuals from twenty six countries across continents in 2009. Professor Chondoka, the Late Professor Ngwisha, Professor Dickson Mwansa, Dr. Peter Machungwa, Dr. Allan Lingambe and Dr. Dominic Nalishebo Nyambe are among names of academicians here in Zambia that was instrumental to the actualization of the concept West East University. West East University is registered as a business name under the Registration of Business Names Act (Section No. 16 of 2011 of the Laws of Zambia) with registration certificate No. 104794. It was established with the background need to provide teacher training skills to both pre-service and in-service teachers at pre-school, primary and secondary levels.

The University has three campuses. Solwezi, purely Open and Distance Learning (ODL) meeting at Solwezi College of Education when on recess (April, August and December). However, plans are under way to develop a campus in Solwezi in conjunction with Solwezi College Evangelical Church in Zambia; Kasama has ODL meeting at Chifwani Basic School during holidays, as well as poultry full time students particularly in Agriculture Science, beginning this June. Copperbelt Campus has full time students. For this reason, Copperbelt Campus is the administrative centre for West East University. The establishment and development of West East University Campus has been a success due to the hard working of Mr. Felix Malasha and Mr. Innocent Sakamona.
