PREAMBLE

The policy provides guidance concerning the rationale and procedures for establishing Colleges and campuses with academic affiliations to the Maseno University. Such colleges and campuses may be formed when the University intends to establish new colleges and campuses or move an existing college and campus from its present site to a more spacious or permanent site especially when there is compelling evidence to suggest that the region to be served by the proposed colleges and campus has substantial demand for envisaged Maseno University programs. A college and campus will then be established when the institution rents or acquires a facility from which it intends to offer several courses and programs. In addition, it must also fulfill all the statutory regulations including the Maseno University Statutes, Charter, University Act 2012, and Commission for the University Standards and Guidelines for the establishment of colleges and a campus. The policy also provides guidelines for academic programmmes to be offered, examinations procedures, and the general administrative and governance structures
