Famously known as ‘The wolves’, the Kakamega Ultimate Frisbee club was founded back in October 2016, by MMUST students who went against all odds and brought this unique sport into the university sporting family.

A sustainable environment is a fundamental pre-requisite in national development, poverty eradication and improved livelihoods for all generations.This is according to the Ministry of Environment & Mineral Resources in Kneya. It is in this regard, that the MMUST Department of Biological Sciences environmental club, in conjunction with Stand Up Shout Out (SUSO) Kakamega division and Organization of Environmental Conservationists (OEC) came together in a peaceful campaign to sensitize Kakamega residence on proper waste disposal and waste management, all geared towards a cleaner and healthy town on Saturday 27th April, 2019.

Did you know that MMUST has successfully moved most of its services to both staff and students from paper to online?

The desire of any stakeholder in an organization is access to basic services at a click of a button, from the comfort of their office or house. This saves on time and resources used in the whole process. Research shows that more than Kshs.10 million is used to procure rims of paper and maintenance of printing machines in offices. Off course we cannot totally do away with papers but we can totally reduce the amount of papers used in our institutions.

The Central Organization of Trade Unions- Kenya (COTU-K) Secretary General, Dr. Francis Atwoli, who is also a MMUST Alumni, is now the MMUST Goodwill Ambassador. Dr. Atwoli will lead the university’s effort to raise five hundred an

d fifty million Kenya shillings (Ksh. 550 M) for the Construction of the Dr. Atwoli International Centre for Labour and Leadership Studies (DAICELLS) at the University.

The Masinde Muliro University Council has encouraged the university management to focus not only on providing quality education, but also creating wealth and employment as a product. The university team and members of council mutually agreed that MMUST must begin to find ways of mobilizing resources and not overly rely on capitation from the government. This was during a two day workshop held on Thursday 11th and Friday 12th April 2019 at the Kisumu Savannah hotel.

MMUST is determined to support the girl-child by ensuring that they take the Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) courses through bringing learners on board at early stages right from High school level.
