  • Research Article the Challenges of Student Affairs at Kenyan Public Universities
    Journal of Student Affairs in Africa | Volume 1 (1&2) 2013, 33–48 | ISSN 2307-6267 | DOI: 10.14426/jsaa.v1i1-2.34 research article The challenges of student affairs at Kenyan public universities Tamara Yakaboski* and Matthew Birnbaum** Abstract Kenya is increasingly turning to the promise of mass higher education to help solve a range of economic and social issues. These efforts have had profound effects on university students, faculty and professionals who provide the vital student support services necessary for academic success. This case study explores the challenges that face Kenyan student services professionals within the context of the country’s history and cultures. Kenya’s student service professionals face four major challenges: the increasing costs of attendance, the resulting impact on student behaviours and actions, lack of training and senior leadership, and regular campus closures. Keywords student affairs, accommodation, student housing, student services, university environment, higher education. The challenges of student affairs at Kenyan public universities Kenya is increasingly turning to the promise of mass higher education, meaning a shift from an elite to an open system of access, to help solve a range of economic and social problems (Jowi, 2009; Kenya Vision 2030, 2007). The national government has made its commitment to post-secondary education evident through the addition of over 25 public universities and constituent colleges since 1994 and its adoption of policies encouraging rapid enrolment growth in nearly all post-secondary institutions. Between 2010 and 2013, Kenya made nearly 20 constituent colleges and branch campuses into stand-alone universities. Even with this growing capacity, Kenya’s demand for access to affordable higher education far exceeds the system’s ability to deliver quality instruction and student support (Ngolovoi, 2010; Owuor, 2012).

  • African Agricultural and Life Science Universities in the Present And
    African Agricultural and Life Science Universities in the present and future Adipala Ekwamu and Anthony Egeru Regional Universities Forum for Capacity Building in Agriculture (RUFORUM), P.O. Box 16811, Wandegeya-Kampala, Uganda Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract There is a recognition that higher education has a catalytic role in expanding opportunities; employment, business and entrepreneurship owing to innovation potential resident in the universities. Trends in the present bring to the fore that the future of agriculture is about science, technology and innovation and higher education institutions are better positioned to propel a knowledge driven growth. In this article we report that agricultural and life science universities like other higher education institutions in Africa have seen an increase in student enrollment. However, this enrolment was not matched with corresponding investments in the staffing, infrastructure and associated services. One of the effects of these unmatched investments is high student-faculty ratio, low capacity of the universities to deliver high quality training in particular output of doctoral level graduates which is impacting the number of PhD level trained faculty in many universities. This deficit in PhD level qualified staff in the continent is costly; it is indicated that Africa spends approximately US$4 billion annually on salaries of western experts that help to fill the gap in the supply of professionals. However, this does not mean that everything in the continent is on a sloppy side of things, there are successes registered amidst these prevailing constraints for example the ability of the universities to innovate agricultural training programmes beyond what they inherited from colonial times.
