By FAITH NYAMAIMore by this AuthorMore than 10,000 students enrolled in bachelor’s degree courses in 26 universities risk getting “worthless” certificates because the programmes are being offered illegally. According to a report by the Kenya Universities and Colleges Central Placement Service, the Commission for University Education (CUE) has not approved the courses and they are therefore invalid. The courses include bachelor of arts in geography, political science, community development, development and policy studies and counselling psychology. Questionable science courses include applied statistics with computing, actuarial science, botany, informatics and natural resource management. According to the report, Tom Mboya University College is teaching 25 degree courses without the commission’s approval, affecting about 810 students.
