News and Events

This university annual event is one of the most celebrated activities in the University. It is a longtime favorite among the students community. The global pandemic brought almost all the University activities to a standstill and we are glad that the dreaded Covid-19 pandemic is almost a thing of the past.
The theme of this year’s Culture Week is ‘Our culture, our identity, our pride. This theme emphasizes on the need to appreciate and promote talents and skills among our students’ individual cultures. These skills are reflected through diverse performances such as traditional and modern dances, poetry, narratives, skits and the catwalk.
This week is a very important part of our university because we get to see outstanding personalities and performances from our students and we are delighted to see what they offer after such a long break. The Culture Week encourages inclusive, equitable and vibrant participation by communities in different sectors.
The culmination of the Culture Week is the Gala Night and Award Ceremony where crowning of Mr and Miss SEKU happened, which is a favourite among the students.

Staff and students turned up in good numbers to participate in the Compassionate Day held on 16^th March, 2023 in a bid to garner support for the needy students in the University. The support could be in terms of finances, clothe and sanitary pads.
The Compassionate Day was flagged off by Prof. Muli, the Director, Board of Postgraduate Studies, and it involved a walk led by the University Clubs and Associations from the University’s Gate B to the Pavilion and lastly a tree planting exercise.
Prof. Ng’ang’a, the Deputy Vice-Chancellor, Academic, Research and Innovation while giving her remarks emphasized the need to be there and help others because tables could easily turn even for those doing exemplary well. She added that it shoud be made a regular thing so that we never have cases of students lacking the basic needs.

A three member team from the Council of Legal Education led by the AG. Chief Executive Officer, Ms. Mary Murugi visited our university to present our certificate to the Vice-Chancellor and other members of the University management.
The journey to the establishment of the School of Law has been long but the Council offered the requisite guidance that has gotten us and we are more than delighted to receive the License. We look forward to receiving our first lot of the government sponsored students later in September.

The School of Health Sciences is progressively growing in leaps and bounds since its establishment. There are currently eleven courses offered in the school ranging from Masters, Bachelors and Diploma programs and more programs are in the pipeline in due course as we seek approval and accreditation from the respective bodies. The School organized an external stakeholder engagement forum to extensively discuss and review the Bachelor of Pharmacy (BPHARM) curriculum.
This important engagement brought together the Dean, Prof. Catherine Mwenda, members of staff from the School of Health Sciences and other external stakeholders drawn from different fields to discuss among others the courses to be offered in the Pharmaceutical course.

The KUPAA (Kenya Universities Performing Arts Association) organized Fine Art competition and Beauty Pageant. A total of 37 universities participated in the contest and SEKU was one of them. Some of our students were privileged to participate and even win in some of the categories. The students were accompanied by the University’s Music and Drama Patrons.
SEKU won first position in two categories in fine art; Interpretation of theme and Logo painting.
Kiptoo Elvis won first position nationally in visual arts category Interpretation of Theme and Mutinda Eric Maithya won first position nationally in Logo Design. Both of them are students from the School of Science and Computing pursuing Bachelor of Science in Computer Science.
Mr Alphonse Lumbasyo, the current Mr. SEKU and Miss Bebina Lusemati, the current Miss SEKU represented the University in the Beauty pageant. Mr. Lumbasyo was nominated by KUPAA to be the representative and spokesperson of all models in Kenya.
