The Kabarak University community gathered today for the weekly Wednesday Chapel Service, a special time of worship, reflection, and spiritual renewal. The sermon was delivered by Rev. Prof. Jacob Kibor, our immediate former University Provost, who retired early last year after a remarkable 12-year tenure, earning well-deserved accolades for his outstanding humility, unwavering dedication, and tireless service to the University. He spoke on the theme “God’s Provision and Guidance.”

Today, 14 October 2025, Kabarak University welcomed new members of staff at an induction seminar on the Main Campus. The programme was led by the Vice-Chancellor and members of The University Management Board (UMB) and attended by deans of schools, directors and heads of departments.

Meru Technical College visited Kabarak University for a benchmarking exercise, focusing on how we have integrated digital solutions in ICT, e-learning, and online pedagogy. The team was hosted by the Kabarak University Online (KABUO) directorate and the ICT Department, who gave a walkthrough of our digital ecosystem.

Kabarak University has been ranked the top private university in Kenya and the 5th best overall in the 2026 Times Higher Education (THE) World University Rankings. This recognition places Kabarak among an elite group of only 11 Kenyan universities that made it to this year’s global list, a strong reflection of our consistent pursuit of academic excellence, impactful research, and global relevance.
