ongoing

The ÉTHIOPIE 4.0 project aims to structure a long-term academic partnership to deliver higher education training at the Addis Ababa Institute of Technology: a quality, job-oriented Bachelor’s/Licence, Master’s, PhD/Doctorate programme, attractive at national and international level. The ambition? Train technicians and industrial experts in the field of cutting-edge digital technologies linked to Industry 4.0, as industrial development and domestic production of products are priorities for the country’s sustainable development. The project was selected for the second edition of the “Academia Partnerships Africa-France” programme (PeA). It is financed by the French Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs via the Agence française de développement (AFD). The PeA programme is implemented by the Agence nationale de la recherche (ANR – French National Research Agency) and Campus France with support from the French Ministry of Higher Education and Research.
