EACMaR Background

The Eastern Africa Centre for Mathematical Research (EACMaR) was launched in Kigali, Rwanda in 2019 through collaborative efforts between three Departments of Mathematics at the University of Dar es Salaam, Makerere University (Uganda) and University of Rwanda (Rwanda), with the support of Sida Bilateral programme. The main objective of the centre is to promote research and postgraduate training in Mathematics in the region. The centre has a node in each participating university. The centre now has four nodes including the Department of Mathematics at the University of Nairobi. The centre is open to other interested departments of mathematics in the universities in East Africa to join. At the University of Dar es Salaam, the centre was registered in 2020 under Department of Mathematics.
