As an educational institution, Maseno University plays a key role in the development of Kenya by offering relevant and innovative academic programs to students from diverse walks of life. Both the student body and the staff complement work in an environment that has committed itself to excellence, one which fosters the full utilization of the knowledge, skills, and talents of each member. In delivering on the promise of excellence, the gender policy guides the institutionalization of policies and practices that promote gender equity and which ensure that no member faces discrimination or harassment on the basis of their gender.
