Director’s Welcome Message

The Directorate of Human Resources serves as the lifeline of the University.  We are committed to supporting the success of NOUN by providing excellent services to our employees.

Our mission is to foster a progressive and inclusive work environment, promote employee growth and development, and ensure compliance with the University’s vision and mission. 

HR is divided into two arms;
