University of Bangui

University of Bangui

The University of Bangui is a public university located in Bangui, Central African Republic. As of 2006, it is the only university in the Central African Republic.

Prior to independence in Ubangi-Shari (later to be called the Central African Republic), most students going on to higher education headed for universities in France. After independence in 1958, the Central African Republic took part in the Foundation for Higher Education in Central Africa, the French acronym of which is "FESAC". The FESAC encompassed several former French colonies, each which schools or institutes with a specific focus. Within the FESAC, the Central African Republic had the agricultural institute.

The FESAC began to come apart in the late 1960s, so on November 12, 1969, the "University of Bangui" was created by government ordinance. The "University of Bangui" expanded the focus of study on agriculture to also include scientific research, law, economics, rural development and liberal arts.
