University of Nairobi: Latest News, Admissions & Campus Life

Looking for clear, useful updates about the University of Nairobi (UoN)? This page brings together the latest campus news, policy changes, admission tips, research highlights and events that matter to students, staff and the wider Nairobi community.

If you’re a prospective student, start here: check admission deadlines, course lists and entry requirements. UoN publishes application dates for undergraduate and postgraduate programmes each year. Keep an eye on the official admission portal and on campus notices for any changes to intake numbers, scholarship offers or document requirements.

Are you a current student? Watch for campus safety updates, exam timetables and registration reminders. We highlight major notices like strikes, facility closures, and student welfare drives so you won’t miss anything that affects life on campus. If a public health issue or security alert occurs, you’ll find quick summaries and where to get official help.

Research, Funding and Partnerships

UoN is active in research across agriculture, public health, engineering and social sciences. We report on major grants, new labs and partnerships with local and international institutions. For researchers and staff, our updates cover grant deadlines, callouts for collaborators, and summaries of high-impact studies coming out of UoN. That helps students find supervisors and journalists spot story leads.

University-industry partnerships often lead to internships and jobs for graduates. We track collaborations between UoN and companies, NGOs, and government bodies so you can see where funding and opportunities are heading. When a research team wins a grant or launches a public program, we explain what that means for students and the public in plain terms.

Events, Sports and Student Life

From graduation ceremonies to cultural festivals and varsity matches, campus events shape student life. We post schedules for major events, highlight winners in university sports, and share practical tips for attending: ticket info, transport options and what to expect at big gatherings. That’s useful whether you’re on campus or following from afar.

Student groups and clubs often run community projects and startup pitches. We spotlight successful student ventures and social initiatives so prospective students can see active campus communities and so alumni can follow alumni-led projects.
