THE TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY OF KENYA
THE Technical University of Kenya (TU-K) is the leading university in technological education and training in Kenya. The University was awarded a Charter in 2013, making it a fully-fledged public university. The University specialises in training at the Postgraduate, Undergraduate and Diploma levels, while at the same time engaging in research. It has a clear student upward movement policy, which makes it easy for students to move from one level of training to the next, and recognise prior training by awarding students credit transfers. The University has developed and implemented a digitised and completely paperless
student applications process; from application to registration. Students are therefore, advised to make their applications on-line for the programmes listed below:
