Rift Valley is the largest Private University in Ethiopia, with a campus in most regions of the country. As of 2015, the University has 27 campuses. Known formerly as Rift Valley University College, RVU was granted full fledged University status in 2014 by Ethiopia's Ministry of Education. Dinku Deyasa, a renowned investor and owner of NFYD PLC, Dr. Haileleul Zeleke (Asst. Professor) and Frezewed Lemma (lecturer) from Adama University (the then Nazareth Technical Teachers’ College) and two other individuals: Reta Bekele, a lawyer and Ato Mulugete Debebe, a management professional envisaged the necessity of founding a private higher education institution mainly aimed at curbing the country’s dearth of qualified human resources. These five persons founded the University in September 2000. The Rift Valley University began operations in October 2000 in Adama Town, with a capital of 1,300,000 Birr, a total of 154 evening program students, and five part-time faculty staff. The Asella branch campus was created two months later with Accounting, Law and Marketing Management being the fields of study. This new "learning community" was housed in just one rented block that consisted of a single administrative office and a few classrooms; by the end of the year 2001, total enrollment at the two centers was about 250 students in the five diploma programs of study. In September 2002 and 2003, Gotera and Batu branch campuses came into being respectively in 2004; the institution was raised to the status of a university and was empowered to grant the bachelor’s degree. The first degrees in Accounting and Business Management were awarded in August 2006. Bishoftu campus was created two years later followed by two other branch campuses – namely, Dire Dawa and Chiro, which went functional in August/September 2005. Bole and Gulele came into being in August 2006. Harar campus, the youngest of all branch campuses, was created in October 2006. == Branches of Rift Valley University == #Addis Ababa (There are two campuses: Gulele Branch and Yoseph Branch) #Bishoftu #Adama #Asella #Shashemene #Baatu (Ziway) #Chiro Town #Dire Dawa #Hararge #Neqemte #Jima Campus 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rift Valley University College」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
