The Higher Normal School of Bujumbura (ENS) is a public higher education institution in Burundi.
The Higher Normal School of Bujumbura was established in 1965, a year after the foundation of the official university of Bujumbura. The ENS aims to train educators for the general, pedagogical, technical, and professional secondary education.[1]
In 1973, the ENS merged with the Official University of Bujumbura (UOB) and the National School of Administration (ENA) to become the University of Burundi.[citation needed]
In 1999, the ENS became an independent structure again with 3 departments, the same departments it had since its establishment.[2]
Since 2011, the Higher Normal School has adopted the BMD system (Bachelor-Master-Doctorate).[citation needed]
