The School of Engineering and Built Environment

The School of Engineering and Built Environment at MMUST was established in July 2008 as Faculty of Engineering, after splitting from the Faculty of Science and Engineering. This was necessitated by the unique challenges encountered in the Engineering profession such as statutory requirements and expectations of the stakeholders (students, sponsors and industries).

The School objective is to produce engineers that meet the expectations of the labour market. Therefore the programmes offered have to be recognized by regulatory and professional bodies. As the only engineering School in the Western Kenya region, it is to be a centre of excellence in applied research and consultancy, and play a leading role in TVET programmes

Our undergraduate students gain hands-on experience in our laboratories, industry placements and final year projects. We have laboratories/workshops in areas such as:-

Concrete Technology

Soils and Highways

Hydraulics

Machining

Welding

Mechanics of Machines

Material Testing

Power systems

Telecommunication

Electronic controls

Micro-processors and micro wave
