The Eritrea Institute of Technology (EIT) or Mai-Nefhi College is a university located in the town of Abardae, Mai Nefhi, Eritrea. It is situated about 12 km southwest of Asmara, near the Mai Nefhi dam. The institute has three colleges: Science, Engineering and Technology, and Education. The institute began with about 5,500 students during the 2003-2004 academic year.
Overview
The EIT was opened after the University of Asmara was ordered closed. According to the government, the institution was established to achieve equal distribution of higher learning in areas away from the capital city of Asmara. Similar colleges were opened in other parts of the country.
The Eritrea institute of Technology at Mai Nefhi is the main local institute of higher studies in science, engineering and education. Funding for EIT is largely external but some funding is provided by the Ministry of Education.
