The Harare Institute of Technology (HIT) has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with a top South African university to collaborate and promote academic exchange programs.
The international agreement will see HIT and Tshwane University of Technology strengthen relations in academic research in areas such as technology advancement, technology researches and innovation.
