Support to University of Rwanda – Strengthening MSc Programme in Economics and Research

This project aims to help build these capacities by:

• Setting up an internationally recognized MSc in Economics with specialization in Applied Quantitative Economics (AQE) at the College of Business and Economics of the University of Rwanda (UR-CBE). Through joint lectures and coaching of national lecturers by international lecturers the medium-term goal is to make the programme self-sustained and obtain international accreditation in due course
• Establishing a research agenda and parallel integration of the UR-CBE into a network of universities and research institutions so as to enhance the research skills of lecturers and professors.
