  • Yesterday, we had the incredible opportunity to appreciate and recognize the efforts of the outgoing IAESTE Kenya DeKUT Club officials, while also welcoming the new team. The club organized a memorable handover dinner at the White Rhino Hotel in Nyeri, where we took time to reflect on the achievements of the past year. We were honoured to have Dr. Misiko, Director of Quality Assurance at DeKUT, in our presence, as he represented the Deputy Vice Chancellor, Prof. E. Magiri. During the evening, we celebrated the dedication and hard work of the outgoing officials: Mr. Moses Mwangi – President Mr. Daniel Muthui – Vice President Mr. Protus Kigen – Secretary Ms. Ivyne Chepkemoi – Treasurer Ms. Laeticia Mureithi – Events Coordinator Mr. Ian Kemboi – Branding Officer Ms. Rose Maina – Exchange Coordinator Mr. Ian Kigen – Welfare Officer Their tireless efforts have played a crucial role in the growth of the exchange program, both within the DeKUT Local Chapter and across IAESTE Kenya. We are deeply grateful for the strong foundation they have built, which will continue to inspire future generations of IAESTE members. To the incoming officials, we wish you all the best in your new roles. May your leadership foster growth, creativity, and success, both within the IAESTE-DeKUT Club and beyond. To the outgoing officials, we extend our heartfelt thanks and wish you the best in your future endeavors. We are confident that the skills and experiences you've gained during your time in office will serve you well in both your careers and personal lives. Here’s to a more successful IAESTE year ahead!   #IAESTEHandover #IAESTEDeKUT #OutgoingOfficials #IncomingOfficials #WorkExperienceDiscover Ian Kemboi

  • At DeKUT, we believe in more than just student exchange. It's about creating meaningful connections and lasting memories. Recently, our DeKUT IAESTE Club organised an exciting game night, where members bonded over fun and laughter. We also had a chance to visit a nearby dam, followed by a scenic hike—an adventure that brought us closer together and showcased the beauty of nature. 🌍💫 #IAESTEKenya #DeKUTStudentExchange #GameNightFun #NatureHikes #MakingMemories #DeKUTIO

His visit was inspiring and insightful, as he shared invaluable knowledge on the benefits of international academic experiences in enriching education and fostering global opportunities. Students gained a deeper understanding of studying in France, including semester exchanges and degree programs. Mr. Alexandre highlighted the transformative impact of embracing new cultures, learning new languages, and developing a global outlook—essential for personal and professional growth in today’s interconnected world. The event was an inspiring and enriching experience, motivating students to explore international education opportunities while emphasizing the importance of global collaborations and their vast potential.         #franceexchange #francescholarships #internationationalization #studyabroad

  • Moses is a Mechatronic Engineering student from DeKUT who had an enriching internship experience in Merseburg, Germany, through the IAESTE exchange program.  At Merseburg University of Applied Sciences, he worked in the mobile robotics laboratory, gaining hands-on experience with the ROS framework. This opportunity allowed him to explore the functions and components of mobile robots, as well as contribute to the development of key systems, including sensors, environment perception, and trajectory planning.  His time there not only enhanced his technical skills but also broadened his understanding of robotics in an international context. #dekutoutgoingstudents #mechatronicengineering #iaesteinternships #studentexchange #dekutio

  • Meet Denis a master’s student in Food Science & Technology at DeKUT. Denis recently completed a 3 month internship in Germany through the IAESTE exchange programme.  He worked within a young, international team whose members have diverse backgrounds, research topics and expertise. The overall aim of the research he was involved in was helping to better understand biogeochemical cycles within agricultural and wetland ecosystems. He was involved in finding better ways to locally close nutrient cycles, secure soil fertility and thus food security as well as to mitigate global climate change by reducing GHG (CO2, CH4 and N2O) emissions. Denis had the chance to work on different interesting topics, not only in the laboratory, but also on a number of field locations spread over North-East Germany, including inter-alia the Spreewald (Project: ICAW2) and Uckermark region (Project: WIN-N). #foodscience #iaesteoutgoing #iaestedekut #dekutoutgoing #dekutinternships #internationaloffice
