The machine learning revolution offers a unique chance to improve lives without opening up and exacerbating global inequalities – if we widen who works on algorithm innovations and where they are located. Currently, the vast majority of experts are in North America, Europe and Asia. Africa is barely represented. Such lack of diversity can have three unfortunate consequences:
- Research communities miss out on talented innovators who lack educational resources.
- Unintended algorithmic biases become entrenched and further discrimination.
- Fewer opportunities are realized to use ML to improve the lives of all Africans.
Enter the African Institute for Mathematical Sciences (AIMS), a Pan-African network of centers of excellence for post-graduate training, research and public engagement in mathematical sciences. They are launching a unique Masters Degree program to enable Africa’s brightest students to become innovators that propel scientific, educational and economic self-sufficiency.
African Master’s Degree in Machine Learning
AMIS launched the African Master’s Degree in Machine Intelligence – a fully funded one-year intensive graduate program – to provide brilliant young Africans with state-of-the-art training in machine learning and its applications at campuses in Rwanda and Ghana. All students admitted for the AMMI program are automatically granted a full scholarship!

Nice
Greetings! I was excited reading your posting. I want to find out if you have opportunity for me to apply.
I hold a Master Degree Business Administration, hope you will consider me for your admission.
This is ofcourse going to be very useful to Africans.
I will love to give this a trial
Je suis titulaire d’un master recherche en Systèmes et Logiciels en Environnements Distribués et un Master Pro en Technologies Innovantes, parcours Information stratégique.
Je suis intéressé par ce master.
It’s very relevant opportunity to learn machine learning.
This would be the first step in the right direction for the first time in African big thanks u have always worked on machine and this would be a wonderful experience hopes
Great one.
Need to be having more info
That awesome I’ll love to be part of this great development.
Im interested i join to their campany
I want to know more on Artificial Intelligence
I will love to be part of this and to know the next thing for me to do. I’m from Nigeria. I have my degree in mathematics as well
I’m interest in joning the company and to know the next thing for me to do with more enlightment.
How do we apply for this “Masters Degree in Machine Learning for Africans”?
It very good chance for thos who wants to learn throgh machine in free condotion.
I am interested, how do I apply for the “Masters Degree in Machine learning for African
Great job, Africa need to move forward and catch up with the rest of the world. Thank you for providing this great opportunity to the African continent. Thanks we remain forever grateful.
Its good chance for all africans people
