MASENO UNIVERSITY GENERAL INFORMATION

MESSAGE FROM THE VICE-CHANCELLOR
Maseno University extends a warm welcome to students coming to study here. Many of you will be
away from home and we will do our best to ensure that your stay with us will be academically
rewarding and socially enjoyable. We have over 17,000 students studying at the University. They
come from a wide variety of backgrounds and cultures and contribute to enhance and enrich life at
the University. In addition the University’s eCampus facilitates online delivery of high quality
certificate, diploma and degree programmes to learners in various parts of the country, the East
African region and beyond.

We hope you will find the information in this booklet informative and helpful. It covers such matters
as application and registration procedures, campus services, accommodation costs and social life.

Maseno University has taken a number of steps to ensure that all students coming here receive all
the necessary attention and assistance they need.
Orientation programmes have been organized for all new students. I would like to take this
opportunity to urge strongly your attendance at the orientation programme. It will allow us to provide
you with a detailed introduction to the University and student life here, while giving you a little time to
look around and familiarize yourself with Maseno University and Kisumu County life and culture
before starting your studies. You will find the dates and locations of the various orientation
programmes in this booklet.

We are confident that your stay with us will be a fruitful one and that you will leave Kisumu County
with fond memories of your time spent in Maseno University.

Prof. Julius O. Nyabundi
Vice-Chancellor, PhD, OGW
