National University of Rwanda The NUR lost many of its daughters and sons. Our first mission is therefore to provide our country with the badly needed skilled manpower for the rebuilding effort. With a population of 4,500 students, we offer basic subjects in Science and Technology, Social Sciences, Arts and Humanities. We are very much aware of the great task ahead of us The University is getting prepared to face the basic development challenge in the context of globalization. At the same time, through our teaching, research programs and extra-curricula activities we aim at bringing up a youth versed in positive values and critical thinking. To achieve this, we focus on Science and Technology together with balanced humanities programs. In our institutions, we have actively embarked on the policy of developing information and communication technologies as a means to break our isolation from the rest of the world and take advantage of its opportunities. We are grateful to many of our benefactors, friends, individual on their own, universities and international organizations who are sustaining our efforts to come out of the above difficult times and rebuild our institution.
