East Africa University

East Africa University is a university in the city of Bosaso in northeastern Somalia, located about 5 kilometres (3.1 mi) from the center of the city.[1] It was founded in October 1999 and began accepting students in early 2000.[2] It is located on the waterfront.[3]

Civil war in Somalia made it difficult for the university to establish itself, and has struggled for funding.[3]
