INES-Ruhengeri Equips Future Construction Leaders Through New Master’s Program

INES-Ruhengeri has launched the Master of Science in Construction Technology and Management, a future-focused program designed to address the growing demand for professional leadership in construction and infrastructure development across Rwanda and the region.

With Africa experiencing rapid urbanization and infrastructure expansion, the construction industry faces increasing pressure to deliver high-quality, efficient, and sustainable projects. This 2-year program trains professionals to meet that demand by combining advanced construction techniques with modern project and business management strategies.

“This program is not just about building structures—it’s about building systems, processes, and people who can lead construction into the future,” said one of the program coordinators.

The program targets engineers and construction professionals with backgrounds in Civil, Water Resources, Structural, Environmental, Geotechnical Engineering, and Construction Management. It blends coursework in advanced construction technology, software and data use in engineering, site supervision, and applied research—all tailored to real industry needs.

Students also conduct a Master's Thesis rooted in industrial challenges, allowing them to contribute directly to innovation in construction systems and materials.
