We have planned to admit students to the international masters programme Digital Libraries and Information Services at the Swedish School of Library and Information Science (SSLIS), University of Borås. The first cohort, two students, is expected to start their full time distance studies in September 2014 and a call, together with information on the application process, is to be shared soon. After this, students will be admitted in September 2015 and 2016 and we are hoping for 2017 as well.
Students study in Rwanda and Swedish teachers coming for short courses to the University of Rwanda, will also teach the masters students while in the country. The students admitted will travel to Sweden for a residential period of one of the courses. Residentials last around one week. The plan is to add to that extra days for visits to different university libraries and/or job shadowing in connection with the visit.
