Statute overview

About this statute

Creates a public university with legal personality called the University of Rwanda and says it is governed by this decree-law. The university’s seat is in Butare, but it may be moved elsewhere in Rwanda by presidential order. The university may also create certain academic units. A campus has academic autonomy, but it remains under the control of the University Council. The university is national and must admit any person who meets the admission conditions without discrimination. The university has academic freedom and may set admissions rules, issue regulations, hire staff, propose academic programs, publish works, confer degrees, and propose new campuses and related institutions.
