All about our college events and activities.

[University of Rwanda @Uni_Rwanda]

In his lecture, Amb. François Xavier Ngarambe guided participants through the genesis of genocide, explaining how discrimination and division laid the foundation for the #Genocide against the Tutsi.

He emphasized that Rwandans have both the right and the responsibility to protect themselves, noting that the international community failed #Rwanda during the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi.

He added that Rwanda's defensive measures will remain necessary as long as threats to peace and security persist.

MINISTER NSENGIMANA MEETS UR STUDENTS — AND DELIVERS ANSWERS THAT MATTER.

Minister of Education Joseph Nsengimana held a candid, interactive session with University of Rwanda students at Nyarugenge Campus today — listening, engaging, and responding with clarity.

On living allowances, the Minister was transparent: limited resources mean government deliberately chooses to sponsor more needy students over fewer students with higher allowances. The students heard the reasoning — and agreed. 👏🏾

On the long-standing frustration of navigating multiple institutions — UR, BRD, and HEC — for academic, loan, and welfare matters, the Minister brought welcome news. A consolidation is coming. UR will soon become a one-stop centre, handling all student services under one roof. Less running around. More focus on what matters — learning.

Responsive government. Practical solutions. Students heard. 🎓🇷🇼

HIGHER EDUCATION COUNCIL LAUNCHES NATIONWIDE OUTREACH — UR NYARUGENGE IS FIRST STOP.

The Higher Education Council (HEC), under the Ministry of Education, has launched a nationwide outreach program across all Higher Learning Institutions in Rwanda — beginning today at the University of Rwanda's Nyarugenge Campus.

The initiative creates a focused platform for regulators and institutions to engage directly on teaching quality, governance, and the effective implementation of the newly developed Higher Education Sector Strategic Plan (HESSP) 2025–2030 — ensuring every HLI understands, owns, and delivers on its strategic priorities.

The University of Rwanda — home to 7 colleges, 13 teaching campuses, nearly 33,000 students, and over 600 international students — welcomes this engagement wholeheartedly.

Vice Chancellor Prof. Kayihura Muganga Didas thanked the Minister of Education for the government's continued support, while highlighting the need for more modern infrastructure to meet growing student enrollment demands.

Quality education. Strategic alignment.
