The young Campus of Gisenyi opened its doors in October 2001 with an enrolment figure of 554 students. The Gisenyi Campus has already produced many undergraduates. First degrees of the bachelor’s level were awarded in February 2006.
As far as infrastructure is concerned, there has been a very rapid progress in building lectures halls, in acquiring various equipment, furniture and computer material. A three two levels building is in construction, for more lectures theatres, computer laboratories as well as offices.
Finally, cooperation with other universities within and outside the country doesn’t only give room to teachers swapping; but chiefly, gives space to the training of assistant-lecturers for master’s and PhD degrees.
