Good to see that students studying GIS at the University of Nairobi also are introduced to SDI concepts....
 
http://www.uonbi.ac.ke/students/degree_general_info.php?deg_type_id=139&type_name=Course+Description&degree_id=82
FEB 503: GEOINFORMATION SYSTEMS (1 UNIT; 48 HOURS) 
Definitions; GIS components, characteristics and sources of GIS data; GIS data capture; Geodatabases and GIS data management; GIS analysis functions; Application of GIS, especially in Biosystems and environmental management. Setting up a GIS installation; the National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI) concept.

Can anyone else share examples from African Universities where GIS is taught, in which SDI is incorporated into the curriculum?
