University of Kigali is thrilled to announce that the design for its new campus, developed by the award-winning architectural firm Wall Corporation, has earned significant international recognition. The campus project won the German Design Award 2025 in the Excellent Architecture category and in addition, has been selected as a Finalist among over 1,200 entries in Italy’s prestigious The Plan Awards, a highly respected international architecture competition.
These honours reflect University of Kigali’s commitment to excellence and innovative design, providing a contemporary and dynamic learning environment for the students. Both the German Design Award and The Plan Awards are renowned globally, recognizing only the highest standards of design through rigorous evaluation processes.
Wall Corporation, known for its exceptional contributions to architecture, has previously earned accolades, such as the World Architecture Awards 2024, for projects like Black Brick Villa, Mountain Spa, and SF Trinity Apartments. This latest recognition reinforces University of Kigali’s campus design as a landmark of architectural excellence.
“We are incredibly proud of this achievement and grateful for the expertise of Wall Corporation,” said Professor George Kimathi, Vice Chancellor of University of Kigali. “These international awards motivate us to continue advancing in both academic leadership and architectural innovation.”
University of Kigali looks forward to furthering its mission of providing a world-class educational experience and enhancing Rwanda’s profile on the global stage.
