Preface from the Rector
Welcome to the Kigali Institute of Education
prospectus for the 2011/2012 academic year.
Kigali Institute of Education is the apex in-
stitution in teacher education with academic
quality responsibility over affiliated Colleges
of Education and Teacher Training Colleges.
This prospectus provides fundamental infor-
mation on our programmes of study, and re-
quirements and is a mix of useful general in-
formation about the institution, fees structures,
as well as support available to students and
staff.

KIE was established with the intention of posi-
tively changing the landscape of human re-
source development especially in the educa- Prof. George K. Njoroge (PhD)
tion profession. The focus on the education of Rector
quality and adequate teachers can never be
overstated in any nation that has development as its core driving force in ensuring quality life for its people. To de-
liver on its mandate, KIE has been lucky to have highly experienced and committed Board of Directors, competent
academic, technical and administrative staff. The institutional philosophy is education for excellence and to actual-
ize this distinction is a commitment to scholarship, adoption of best practices in the learning and teaching for the
twenty-first century and beyond. We are institution that is continuously enhancing facilities and the general campus
environment for quality and lasting experience for all those who desire to make their future bright today and not
tomorrow.

The purpose of this prospectus is to give prospective students a chance to experience what an exciting, creative
and innovative learning is in an institution that believes in the holistic actualisation of the human potential. You are all
welcome to interact with committed academics, administrative and technical and other support staff. The experience
of KIE will linger forever and will be life changing in a positive manner. Come and enjoy quality education as you
engage in community to make a difference not only in your professional calling but also in our society in general. It
can only be now and not tomorrow.


A Message from the Vice Rector
Academic

I wish to warmly welcome students, staff and all
readers to this KIE prospectus 2011-2012. I take this
opportunity to give you a brief overview of KIE academic
programmes. KIE offers Diplomas, Bachelors,
Postgraduate Certificates, Postgraduate Diplomas
and Masters programmes to students from Rwanda,
the region and all over the world. KIE programmes
are focused on teacher education and are organized
through various modes: day, evening, weekend and
distance. This variety of learning modes provides
flexibility to access KIE programmes and help people
get qualifications that will help them develop or change
their career.

KIE has four Faculties namely Education, Science,
Prof. Wenceslas Nzabalirwa (PhD)
Arts and Languages as well as Social Sciences and Vice Rector Academic
Business Studies. It has also established three Centres
and one School: Centre for Academic Practice and Development, Centre for Open, Distance and E-Learning, Centre
for Gender, Culture and development and, School of Postgraduate Studies and Research. It furthermore hosts a
Confucius Institute and a Resource Learning Centre where there is a wide range of inclusive education services for
disabled students.
Thank you for your interest in the programmes offered at Kigali Institute of Education.

any specific requirement laid down by the programme


Medical Requirements

Before registration for any programme of study, proof
of medical fitness to study from a registered medi-
cal practitioner is required. Those registering to take
teacher training or college tutor training will additionally
have to under go a medical examination by the KIE
doctor. The medical examination will determine the ap-
plicants’ physical and mental suitability for teaching.
They will additionally have to meet any requirements
laid down by the Ministry of Education with respect to
the medical requirements for serving Teachers/College
Tutors. Those registering to take the degree in Profes-
sional Policing will be required to pass the medical test
carried out by the police. Any student on a programme
of study who after registration is found to be medically
unfit to pursue that programme of study will be required
to withdraw. The Institute, will where appropriate, make
every effort possible to find for a student a place on an
alternative programme whose medical fitness require-
ments they meet.

High Educational Council recommends that public High
Learning Institutions should be guided by the following
principles in determining which courses to offer:
1. There should be a minimum of 15 students enrolled
in an undergraduate course in order for it to be of-
fered in a particular semester;
2. It should be understood that the government will
not sponsor students majoring in non priority ar-
eas;
3. Any undergraduate course that does not make
(have at least 15 students enrolled) for four con-
secutive semesters, should be phased out (re-
moved from the catalogue/prospectus);
4. There should be a minimum of 8 students enrolled
in a post-graduate program unless the program is
sponsored from grant funds and the lower numbers
are agreed with the sponsors.
