Programmes in the 2022 directory
Programmes are listed as the directory groups them: by field (filière) with its specialities, and the diploma the group leads to, in the directory's own wording, French or English. Where a group shows no diploma, the directory prints none beside it. A private institution's licence, bachelor's or master's is usually awarded under the academic supervision (tutelle académique) of a state university or another institution, which the wording names.

What isn't here
Fees are not in the directory: private institutions set their own, so ask each one. No national fee list is published for the state universities either. The University of Buea's fees page (read 21 October 2026) gives 50,000 FCFA a year for Cameroonian undergraduates and leaves the figure for international undergraduates blank; its graduate programmes start at 150,000 FCFA for Cameroonians and 450,000 FCFA for international students.
No enrolment, fees, admission cut-offs or graduate outcomes are published per institution, so this is a directory, not a matcher. State universities' own programmes are not in the directory.
Entry no. 21 of the West region, page 235 of the directory. Names are as the directory prints them, in capitals and with its own spellings, set in upper and lower case by us. Where the heading also names the promoting body or a person, only the institution's name is kept.
