    The university is one of Ethiopia’s two Science and Technology Universities. No subject list or programme catalogue is given, so the available degrees should be checked on the university website.

  3. Getting in

    International applicants should apply through the university’s official admissions process and confirm entry requirements, document checks, deadlines, and any language or visa steps on the official website. The admissions office should be the point of contact for current application instructions.

  5. Coming from abroad

The university website and admissions office should confirm these points before you apply.

  6. How it compares

    Ethiopia has 30 universities in total, and this one stands out as a public science and technology university rather than a general comprehensive institution. That makes it a narrower choice than many others in the country if you already want a technical focus.

Written from this university's catalogue entry and its cited encyclopedia summary. Figures are only shown where the institution or a cited source publishes them — always confirm fees and entry requirements with the university itself before applying.
