The Technical University of Kenya on Friday suspended courses for their Engineering students. The University's Communications Director Ken Ramani announced the suspension.
The students' lives have been put on hold because of the long stalemate between the University and the Engineering Board of Kenya (EBK) over the accreditation of courses in the University.
“This decision has been made after careful consideration of the contents of the EBK advertisement that warned the public against enrolling students in non-EBK accredited engineering programmes,” Ramani said.
The EBK had, in July, warned the University that some of the courses were not accredited.
The students studying Mechanical, Chemical, Civil and Electrical engineering will now have to wait for the EBK to approve the classes.
The courses were approved in 2009 when the University was still a constituent college of University of Nairobi by the University Senate and the Commission of Higher Education.
