Abstract:

Kenyan university students have performed relatively poorly compared to their counterparts in Australia and the United Kingdom when it has come to International sports participations. Could this be attributed to the personnel handling sports at the Kenyan Universities? This study went out to look at the perceptions of the students participating in sports at public and private universities in Kenya. Further, the study went out to look at the qualifications and quantification of personnel in both private and public universities in Kenya. The study used a descriptive research design. A questionna

Abstract:

The purpose of the study was to determine the impact of resource adequacy in public and private universities in Kenya. Massification is the rapid enrolment of students in universities. Kenya has expanded her student enrolment in universities for her development needs. Research findings raise pertinent issues touching on the quality of education in the Kenyan universities. The study adopted a causal- comparative survey research design. The respondents were students and lecturers in the eight purposely selected universities in Kenya.

Abstract:

University administrators, academic staff and students are key agents of internationalisation of higher education, particularly at the institutional level. The growing volume of literature on internationalisation has looked at the role that these stakeholders play. However, few studies in Kenya have examined these stakeholders’ conception of the internationalisation process. The current study explored Kenyan universities’ understanding of the process of internationalisation and how their perceptions influenced the provision of quality academic programmes.

<strong>Abstract:</strong> This paper examines how research carried out in Kenyan Universities is safeguarded and disseminated. It highlights the challenges of sharing research information by the faculty in different universities in Kenya. Often, research in universities is contained and controlled within the individual universities with little sharing to the public outside the given universities. The problem is aggravated by the fact that few universities have repository centres and even where such exist the data is not in open access (OA), thus reducing exposure of the research to the world

Abstract:

Education has become more international and in this millennium, governments have laid emphasis on internationalization of higher education through international co-operation and exchange. In Kenya, institutions and universities have developed their own strategies to internalize their research teaching and service. The process of globalization renews roles and responsibilities of universities following the rapid expansion of various programmes offered at the Kenyan universities due also to increase in student enrollment and opening of new campuses. It follows that Universities are operating in

Public universities play a critical role through academic empowerment of the citizens and actively participating in knowledge dissemination and research in society. However, despite being the centers of knowledge creation and development, one of the significant challenges facing public universities in Kenya is financial sustainability. This is evidenced by growing debt from financial institutions, unremitted statutory deductions, and shrinking government grants. Whereas proponents of sound financial management practices including revenue diversification hold the practices as possible solutions

Abstract:

Public universities in Kenya are under both moral and legal obligations to perform three important functions, which are providing excellent teaching, research, and community outreach. These functions are important because if they are well performed, the country will realise its vision for 2030. However, the performance of public universities in Kenya is still far below expectations based on both global and regional comparisons. The study, therefore, is intended to determine if the performance problem in the universities can be solved by the organisational resources; hence, the objective of the

Abstract:

Knowledge Management (KM) practices have been used across the globe to measure organization performance. However, gaps still exist on the effects of knowledge sharing (KS) on academic performance of students in institutions of higher learning. Based on Human Capital Theory, the study attempted to bridge this information gap by assessing the effect of KS on academic performance of postgraduate students of private universities in Kenya. Descriptive cross-sectional survey design was used. A sample of 370 respondents was drawn from a population of 12,919 postgraduate students and faculty/departmen

Abstract:

In recent years, there has been an increase of students’ enrollment in private universities in Kenya. In effect, there has been a great need to recruit and retain quality academic staff. Studies reveal that it has been difficult to retain academic staff especially in private universities in specialized areas and required experience. A literature gap exists in Kenya on the effect of academic staff retention on the quality of education in private universities. The aim of the study was to determine the effect of academic staff retention on quality education in private universities in Kenya. A sur

Integrating gender diversity policies into organizational structures is vital for sustainable development and climate action. However, there is a notable gap in the implementation of these policies, especially in Kenyan chartered universities. This study evaluated the influence of gender diversity policy implementation on service delivery in Kenyan chartered universities. The hypothesis: there is no statistically significant relationship between gender diversity policy implementation and service delivery among chartered universities in Kenya, was tested.

Accounts receivable refer to the payments expected by an organization in the foreseeable future. Accounts receivable management plays an integral part in the financial performance of higher learning institutions. With several public universities experiencing no or delayed payments from the respective receivable accounts, such institutions have been characterized with financial constraints, struggling to meet their immediate obligations. From reduced government capitation, lack of the module two students (Self-Sponsored), and students' non-compliance on fee payment policy, public universities i

Doctorates are fundamental pivot towards facilitating the social and economic transformation of a nation. Nevertheless, research on doctorate education point out that most candidates in Kenyan public universities spend lengthy period of time to earn their doctorate degrees. Furthermore, data of those enrolling in selected Kenyan public universities demonstrate that less students enroll for doctorate programmes in contrast with those who register for Master and Bachelors’ programmes.

fhe semi-privatisation of public universities and the growth ofprivate universities have been two important developments affecting higher education iri Kenya in the last decade. The trend towards the privatisation ofuniversity education has been in tune with global neo-liberal policies that Kenya embraced from 1986. The policies were promoted for their potential to broaden opportunities for previously excluded groups. In higher education, private universities and programmes claim to offer more opportunities for women and a higher transition from college to employment. A close analysis however

The increase in enrolling students in Kenyan public universities has constrained most institutions to concoct methods of guaranteeing that academic staff has adequate contact hours with the students. However, it is noted that the number of enrolments does not emphatically match the quantity of academic staff in Kenyan state-funded universities. The most proficient proportion is 1:30 at the undergraduate level for students doing sociologies.

Abstract:

In the prevailing global church music job market, church worship ministers or music directors are on high demand as they play a crucial role in church liturgy and other church musical events. Globally, many universities offer programmes on music training and pastoral leadership. In Kenya, such training is predominantly in theological schools with few universities offering such programmes. Currently, there is a growing interest of church musicians in Kenya due to the need to spread the gospel beyond the church walls and to promote ecumenism. For example, churches participate in church crusades,
