University of Nairobi Speciality : Civil & Structural Engineering
programme: Biosystems Engineering

The UoN is an institution that one should not pass up an opportunity to attend. I like the fact that it was designed for learning. You can tell from the lecture room designs and the overall attitude of staff. Being close to the city centre is also a big plus for those who want to have a work-school life. However, I am a bit disappointed in its investment in science courses, the equipment never seems to be enough, but the technicians do their very best with what is there. I would recommend it, especially to those pursuing their first degree.

It is an adequate university. I like that the lecturers had a somewhat good knowledge of what they were teaching. The practical aspect of my programme was lacking though. I’d recommend working on making technical subjects more practical.
