Why a group of mathematics and statistics students at UR–CST started meeting every week — and what that’s grown into.
MSAR brings together mathematics and statistics students at the University of Rwanda’s College of Science and Technology. What began as regular peer sessions has grown into a full programme of weekly sessions, practical training, and guest talks that runs through the academic year.
The constant has been simple: students showing up, week after week, to learn from each other and from people already working in the field.
To promote academic excellence, practical learning, professional development, and collaboration among mathematics and statistics students at UR–CST.
To be a strong hub for learning, innovation, professional growth, and community for mathematics and statistics students across Rwanda.
Dates below come directly from MSAR’s own session photos and the 2026 MSAR Dinner invitation — not invented.
