The Technical University of Kenya (TU-K) is a public university in central Nairobi, along Haile Selassie Avenue. It provides technology-oriented study and research across engineering, applied sciences, computing, business, design, media and other disciplines. The old September 2016 intake information is historical and should not guide new applications.

Current programmes, fees and student services
TU-K’s official admissions system lists May/September 2026 application information. It also has an extensive course directory, but an entry in the full programme database is not proof that applications for that course are currently open. Applicants should select an available cohort and check course-specific eligibility, fee amounts and enrolment instructions. Government-sponsored applicants should follow the relevant placement and admission process. Do not use the old 2016 fee or reporting details.
