Upcoming Residential Programs in Jul-Aug 2024
@IIT Madras Zanzibar, @Manipal Academy of Higher Education
Above is the idyllic Stone Town in Zanzibar - a place of great historical importance, given its location on the Spice Route, not to talk of the natural beauty of its various beaches, the balmy climate in July/ Aug (Avg Max of 29 deg C, and Avg Min of 22 deg C), making it a fantastic tourist spot (that is not as busy and taxing as many of the other global spots)!
One more fun fact - Freddie Mercury was born in Stone Town, Zanzibar.
Did you also know that IIT Madras, ranked #1 on the NIRF, opened its campus at Zanzibar in 2023!
We are proud to have signed an MoU between GenWise and IITM Zanzibar to conduct programs at the IITM Zanzibar Campus for high school students from around the world, including and especially students from Africa.
