This program specification has been produced to conform to the Rwandan National Qualifications Framework for Higher Education Institutions. The objective of the program is to prepare students well for leading careers in research and development both in industry and academia.
It is in this regard that this an PhD programme in Energy Economics for Africa, to be based in Rwanda and hosted by the College of Science and Technology (ACE-ESD), at University of Rwanda, is being proposed. In selecting Rwanda to host this all-important program in Africa, the Program Coordinators took a lot of factors into consideration particularly the security and safety of visitors (i.e. the visiting lecturers, guest speakers and students).
Additionally, by establishing the PhD programme in an African University which covers the entire range of research related to energy economics, this is going to reduce the tuition fees to be paid by African students who would have wanted to pursue a similar programme in Europe or the USA, but could not do so due to the prohibitive tuition fees. These students now have the opportunity to do so in Africa at a reduced cost of almost 30%, compared with the tuition fees in Europe and the USA.
Educational AimsPhD degrees by Research are different from taught degrees because the programme is an independent research project, rather than a programme of assessed coursework. The programme is aimed at candidates who want to qualify for research and scientific work at a high international level. The programme enables the graduates to pursue a research career in academia as well as in industry linked to the application related to electrical power systems.The programme has the following

Making an original contribution: The essential requirement of a PhD is the creation of new knowledge. The research work has to inevitably build on the work and ideas of others, but as a research student they are expected to make an original contribution (novelty though it can be an applied research) to knowledge related to electrical power systems discipline by choosing a problem of development priority and find a solution to it by means of developing new ideas through the creation of new knowledge.
Leading a research: The students will lead the research project, but they will also have support from a Supervisory Team (ST) who are there to provide guidance and read and comment on draft work - but the ultimate responsibility for planning and managing the research will rest with the research students.
Successfully conduct and manage research undertakings, which may include aspects not only from electrical power systems domain but also from other domains within the discipline of energy materials science.
