not easy to get a job,” says Jean-Paul Bahati, a student at Kepler, a college founded in Kigali in 2013. But the 22-year-old believes his course will help him stand out. He studies health-care management, a growing industry in Rwanda. Kepler’s degrees are accredited by Southern New Hampshire University , which runs one of the largest online universities in America.
The effects of spreading public funding thinly are apparent on campuses. African universities have 50% more students per professor than the global average. Students are more likely to study humanities degrees than science ones, which are more expensive to teach. Over 70% of graduates have arts degrees, versus 53% in Asia.
“A traditional university model is very hard to make profitable,” says Fred Swaniker, the Ghanaian founder of. He should know.

It has ditched plans to open dozens of campuses like these and is instead expanding the cheaper buy 90 desktop computers, even though it gives students laptops.
