With reduction of cut points required to join university and college, there is influx of students doing various courses. Since the minimum admission required for one to pursue diploma course in Kenya is now C- (minus) in Kenya certificate of secondary education (K.C.S.E), it is projected that there will be many students joining various institutions.
Therefore, it is high time for graduates to further their education in their field because Kenya as a country more people who have done a general course. There is need for specialization and this can only be done at postgraduate level. At postgraduate level, you will be able to narrow down to a single area for specialization.
For the above matter, here comes the Chuka university main campus which is a favorable institution for specialization. Chuka is a young public university in Kenya but since its charter last year it has launched several postgraduate programmes under the respective faculties.
