Dr. Justin Kyalo, PhD

We are a vibrant community of researchers and scholars sharing a commitment to excellence, community service and student satisfaction. As a department, we strive to equip our learners with skills and competencies that will prepare them to be competent players in their various fields of specialization. Consequently, our students are also well equipped to think, function and provide solutions to the various social, political, economic and technological issues in the global communities that they are a part of.

Our commitment as a department is to ensure that we churn out in to the job market well rounded graduates who are well equipped to deal tolerantly and effectively with the challenges of the modern world. With the noticeable changes in our society today, the competencies that are taught in this department are extremely relevant if not altogether indispensable.
