Welcome to Salale University’s (SlU) Official Website,It is my great honor to serve as the President of Salale University, and I am deeply inspired to work alongside the dedicated and enthusiastic staff of our institution. I firmly believe that education is the most powerful tool to drive national progress and improve lives in all dimensions. It serves as the foundation for all forms of advancement, achievable only when access and equity are ensured.
With this vision, and guided by our motto, "Co-Creating Quality," Salale University was established in 2015 in Fiche town, North Showa Zone, Oromia Region, located 112 kilometers from Addis Ababa. Since its inception, SlU has been steadfastly committed to its three core missions: education, research, and community service. The University began its academic journey with nine undergraduate programs. Today, it offers more than thirty undergraduate programs, and we have finalized preparations to launch postgraduate programs in various fields by 2020. Our region, North Showa, widely known as "Salale" for historical reasons, is uniquely positioned, bordered by two major tributaries of the Nile River—Mogor and Jama—as well as the Nile itself. This area has attracted significant attention from researchers and academics due to its potential mineral resources.

Salale University, in collaboration with Northern University, organized a Cluster Orientation Program to discuss and reflect on the national significance of the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD). As one of Africa's largest infrastructure projects, the GERD represents a historic milestone in Ethiopia’s development journey. Initiated in 2011 and built along the Blue Nile River, the dam aims to generate over 6,000 megawatts of electricity, significantly boosting Ethiopia’s power capacity and supporting economic growth, industrialization, and regional energy integration. Despite facing geopolitical challenges, particularly tensions with downstream countries like Egypt and Sudan over water rights and Nile flow management, Ethiopia has remained committed to completing the project with a spirit of cooperation and African solidarity. The dam symbolizes national pride and unity, as it has been funded largely through public contributions and bonds. For Ethiopia, the GERD is not only a transformative energy source but also a key driver of poverty reduction, job creation, and sustainable development. The orientation event served as a platform to educate students and stakeholders on the dam’s strategic importance, the obstacles overcome, and the opportunities it presents for Ethiopia’s future.
