As a branch of the College of Engineering (CIT), CMU-Africa offers the MS in Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE).  M.S. ECE students, including students in the ECE Integrated Master’s-Bachelor’s (IMB) program, can pursue their studies as full-time students at the CMU-Africa campus in Rwanda for one semester or for the entire M.S. ECE program. CMU-Africa offers a stimulating and unique opportunity to study with faculty, researchers, and other M.S. students in one of the world’s most rapidly developing economies. In addition to offering fundamental courses, CMU-Africa is strong in telecommunications and wireless networks, mobile computing, energy systems, and information and communication technology (ICT), with a special emphasis on emerging ICT innovations and applications in Africa.
