We are transforming Africa through innovative scientific training, technical advances, and breakthrough discoveries!

The African Institute for Mathematical Sciences (AIMS) is a pioneering institution transforming STEM education and research in Africa. Founded in 2003, AIMS has grown into the continent’s largest network of centres of excellence for training, research, and public engagement in mathematical sciences.  With six centres across Africa, AIMS provide a world class, pan-African, and interdisciplinary learning environment that equips young Africans with skills to address critical challenges such as climate change, food security, and pandemics.
