We exist to strengthen the research ecosystem within MUBAS by providing strategic, technical, and administrative support to staff, students, and partners. Our mandate is to create an enabling environment where impactful research thrives; addressing local, regional, and global challenges while advancing knowledge that drives sustainable development. We achieve this by promoting high standards of research ethics, building capacity, facilitating partnerships, and ensuring compliance with international best practices.

At RSU, we believe research is a catalyst for positive change. Guided by values of integrity, inclusivity, and innovation, we are committed to empowering the MUBAS community to generate knowledge that informs policy, transforms lives, and contributes to Malawi’s socio-economic development and beyond.
