Established in 1986, the Masuku University of Science and Technology was formed through the relocation of the Faculty of Science from Libreville to Franceville. The former National School of Engineers of Libreville (ENSIL), now known as the Polytechnic School of Masuku (EPM), was also included in this transfer. The university’s establishment was made possible by funding from the Gabonese Investment Fund, with support from the Saudi Development Fund, the Islamic Development Bank, and the French Republic.
