Challenges facing the built environment
The School, in collaboration with other institutions worldwide is trying to address the challenges facing the built environment.
Research and outreach are being carried out on global issues such as urban sprawl, unplanned cities, inefficient provision of infrastructure, inadequate management of construction, poor land management, lack of low cost housing, and so on. The school has staff with expertise to handle most of the issues in the area of built environment and in addition, the school has collaboration arrangements with other universities in Sweden, Norway, Kenya, Tanzania, Mozambique, Botswana and many others.
The school takes as priority provision of hands on experiential learning so that the student is ready to work with minimum internship after graduation. For this we thank the firms that collaborate with us in providing the students’ industrial training. Most of the graduates from the school end up being absorbed to work in the areas of their study.
