Good Coursework, Poor MBA Experience

I found the coursework in Kenyatta University’s MBA program to be good. The lecturers were knowledgeable, and the classes provided a solid foundation in business and management. If the program were judged on coursework alone, I would rate it highly.

Unfortunately, my experience changed completely once I reached the project/thesis stage. The process was disorganized, slow, and frustrating. Delays in approvals, supervisor feedback, and administrative procedures turned what should have been a straightforward research project into a lengthy ordeal. In my experience, it is possible to spend years trying to complete the thesis because of these inefficiencies.

The graduation process was just as frustrating. Clearing the required administrative steps felt unnecessarily complicated and time-consuming. My impression was that having someone on the inside who could help navigate the system made the process much easier. Without that kind of assistance, graduating felt like an uphill battle.

Because of my experience, I would not recommend Kenyatta University’s MBA program. While the coursework is strong, the problems with the thesis and graduation processes outweigh those positives. If you’re investing your time, money, and effort in an MBA, you should be able to complete the program and graduate within a reasonable timeframe without having to struggle through unnecessary administrative obstacles.

Overall my experience in the Master's In Management Grand cole Specialisation in Finance has been incredibly rewarding yet demanding The biggest strength of the program is definitely the combination of intensive hands-on projects and deep market simulations which gave me practical financial skills I can actually use in the industry [...]
