%X For 11 years since its existence, the Rundu Campus of the University of Namibia hasn¡¯t created a simple and accessible database of undergraduate student research scholarship. Taking a longitudinal (2016-2021) exploratory approach, this research compiled a primary database of research topics (N = 256) to understand the areas of research interest students have been focusing on over this period. Over 40% of the Campus research targets students as subjects of research while the campus research is largely interpretative (13.1%), exploratory (13.3%) and seeking to evaluate the knowledge (28%) of students across a large spectrum of health, education, and business-related issues. The study recommends extending future research beyond just the ¡°Research Topics¡± to cover a full breadth of Campus research work up to their conclusions and recommendations. Furthermore, the study recommends the Campus academic society do more than merely studying on ¡°students¡± and cover broader socio-economic aspects within the Kavango East region to have more scholarly relevance.
