= = ZIMBABWE OPEN UNIVERSITY (ZOU)



·  §    Año de apertura     En 1993 se establece el Centro de Educación a Distancia en la Facultad de Educaci ón de la Universidad de Zimbabwe, iniciando sus actividades con 749 docentes en servicio. Sus funciones consisten en la profesionalización y perfeccionamiento (Maestrías) de docentes. En 1996 brindaba educación a distancia 3,429 estudiantes. Es debido a esta demanda que la Universidad de Zimbabwe decide la creación del University College of Distance Education. El incremento de estudiantes, llegó a 18,000 e impulsó la creación de la Zimbabue Open University en el año 1999. Se encuentra ubicada en la ciudad de Harare:
