Scientists have called on education stakeholders, including parents and teachers, to rally young girls to pursue science, technology, engineering and mathematics courses (STEM), at higher learning institutions. The call was made yesterday as Rwanda joined the rest of the world to celebrate Mathematics Day. It is the first time the day was marked in Rwanda. […]

Khulani Secondary School in Langa is one that has seen their mathematic results regress in consecutive years. But they now have a secret weapon up their sleeves. You see, the school’s grade 10 to 12 students are now getting Saturday lesson classes from Masters and PHD students from all over Africa. The classes are held […]
A girl in Ethiopia could grow up to engineer a new method for improving agricultural yields, if only she could meet the right mentor. A young woman in Malawi has ideas for new cancer treatments, but will never apply them if she is pushed out of school. And a girl in Rwanda has all the […]

Dative Tuyisenge has been passionate about sciences, especially mathematics, since her childhood in primary school. But, like many young Rwandans, Tuyisenge, grew up struggling to pay for school fees for her education, which was threatening her dream to become one of acclaimed female scientists both on Rwanda and elsewhere. However, her hope was revived, and […]

African Mathematicians have been urged to seek constant engagement with industry and define common relationship with the problems of the Continent. In this vain, they could effectively use mathematics to solve problems peculiar to the African environment as most of the problems were said to be inherently Mathematical in structure and dynamics. Professor Louis Aime […]
