UEA campus
The city campus of UEA provides students with countless opportunities for work and recreation — from sitting in a coffee shop with a laptop to internships at large companies. Bujumbura has a well developed entertainment infrastructure, but the rhythm of the big city can be distracting for some students. There is a library on the grounds of the university. There are collected scientific works of graduates and teachers of the university, as well as fiction.
