Introduction of Revenue- generating Programmes and Courses

Faculties at UWI Mona are actively introducing short and professional revenue-generating courses to enhance the Campus’s revenue base while meeting increasing demand. A notable collaboration with the Turks and Caicos Islands Community College (TCICC) allows nurses to complete essential training at The UWI/UHWI, with plans for franchising the BScN programme, which started in May 2024. The Faculty of Science and Technology also launched the Mona Academy of Science and Technology (MAST), delivering 11 professional summer courses. The Faculty of Social Sciences is partnering with Becker to offer classes for aspiring Certified Public Accountants, beginning in the 2024–2025 academic year. Moreover, the Faculty of Sport has established new partnerships with organisations like Rajasthan Royals to develop specialised courses for sports scholars, while also engaging with universities across Africa. This strategic focus on professional and accredited courses is set to provide The UWI with a competitive edge and attract a diverse student body.
