Master of Arts Degree in Regional Integration and African Development (MRIAD)
The unique 2-year online course seeks to build cadres of highly trained and skilled experts to enhance national capacity for regional and continental integration in Africa, particularly as the continent is operationalising the African Continental Free Trade Area. It provides a much-needed opportunity for state actors (e.g. staff of Ministries, Departments, and Agencies) and non-state actors (e.g. private sector, civil society, journalists, individuals) to have a well-grounded understanding of the multi-dimensional complexities of integration for management of regionalism and African development.
