Waza National Park (Cameroon, Africa): Inquiry (from Cameroon, Africa) - Inbox from Aurelien or VOLCANO Mar 19, 2021, 12:15 AM (5 days ago) to me Good day WUaS, I wish to inquire about your programs. Do you offer masters degree programs in computer science? If yes, it comprises of how many courses ? * * Let's wait until 2023 when the CC-4 MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch platform (partly on Google's G Suite for Education) will have developed much further via edX, and when (after completing your Bachelor's degree) you can apply to WUaS for free-to-students' PhD degrees with a Master's degree exit possibility along the same lines

Thank you for your feedback. 

I can fluently express myself in English, French, Pidgin(Broken Africaans), Mbouda and Bakweri. 

Here in Cameroon, the main official Languages are English and French. I will gladly spearhead the creation of WUaS in Cameroon as many people are eager to acquire degrees but lack the means, especially after these years of crises.

Robotics has played a vital role here in its own right. For instance, there is an automated teller machine (ATM) which has just been invented and it uses bitcoins instead of the hard currency. It has also helped in the field of telecommunication and many other domains. However, alot still has to be done which is the main reason why I will like to advocate for free education in Cameroon so that a lot of people who do not have access to education will have it and this will make the population more productive.

Mondays here are generally locked down so I doubt if I will be able to attend Monday meetings but you can always give me the link to review it and whenever this changes, I will not hesitate to let you know.

Best Regards.

Dear Volcano Aurelien. 

Sounds good. 

In World Univ & Sch's CC-4 MIT OpenCourseWare-centricity - https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/electrical-engineering-and-computer-science/ (planned in French and English, - and which other main languages in Cameroon, for online free-to-students' CC-4 OCW-centric PhD, Bachelor, Law, MD, and IB high school?) - and even regarding creating Cameroon World University & School - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Cameroon - in all languages there as wiki schools for open teaching and learning, these degree processes will take time. Please  stay tuned as WUaS develops. What are the languages you speak besides English? And what role is Robotics playing in Cameroon these days - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Robotics ?

I'll add you also to the Monday WUaS News & Q&A emails which is open and meets in Google Meet video conference, if you'd like to communicate directly further at some point.

Thanks, Scott

AURELIEN (Volcano),

Thank you for the information, - and your interest in studying at World Univ & Sch for a free-to-students' Master's Degree in Computer Science. World Univ & Sch is only planning to offer free-to-students' Bachelor and PhD degrees presently, initially via the edX platform, but may explore offering as an 'exit strategy' a Master's Degree (not an edX MicroMasters) if the WUaS computer science PhD program doesn't somehow work out for a student. WUaS is also interested in growing significantly the number of CS PhDs in Cameroon and in all of central and western Africa particularly - with becoming a professor a potential career. What do you plan to do career-wise with your degree? And would you be able to apply for the PhD program at WUaS instead finishing in about 2026 (possibly 5 years' avg time to completion?), Volcano?

Here's the link to a video  I made yesterday for prospective PhD programs -

Here's the "Upcoming PhD Programs at @WorldUnivAndSch" VIDEO (with free PhD programs beginning as early as May 1, 2021 via preliminary edX courses, (re WUaS-edX partnering)

We will keep in touch. I will take a Masters from mid 2023 to 2025 and launch for the PhD program by late 2025 so that  latest by 2027 I should be done. 

I will check on you from time to time.Thank you.

Thank you for your reply Mr Scott. I am currently doing a Bachelors degree in Computer Science and will be done by mid 2023 which is why I want to do a Masters at that time after which I will go straight for a PhD program. I intend to lecture in Universities and impact the knowledge which I have gained to others. 

Once again, thanks for your assistance.

Thanks for the information.  In 2023, I will love to take a masters degree in Computer Science but here are my issues;

1) I want free online education as my country Cameroon is currently under a civil war that has lasted for the past 4 years and no one knows how long it will last.

2) Will you offer me a masters degree at the end of my training?

Hi VOLCANO,

Thanks for your inquiry. Only in the last Monthly Business Meeting for WUaS, we discussed the possibility of a Master's degree as an exit possibility for the PhD program. And while WUaS is thinking conceptually that students in the PhD programs' first 2 years toward a Master's Degree along the way, will take approximately 10 MIT OCW 15 week courses in edX per year (https://www.edx.org/search?q=computer%20science < https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/electrical-engineering-and-computer-science/), this is all developing as WUaS-edX partnership develops. 

If you would be interested, you are welcome to join the hour-long monthly business Meeting for WUaS which meets tomorrow at 9am Pacific Time, with further information here -
