Egerton University to Host 2nd Research Festival in August 2025
Egerton University has been officially selected to host the 2nd Research Festival in August 2025, an event organized in collaboration with the National Research Fund (NRF). This follows a strategic meeting held on February 13, 2025, where Egerton’s senior management, led by Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Academics, Research & Extension) Prof. Bernard Aduda, met with NRF CEO Prof. Dickson Andala and his team.
The meeting solidified Egerton’s commitment to advancing research and innovation, particularly in agriculture and food security, the main theme of the upcoming festival. This marks a significant milestone, as the first edition of the Research Festival was held in Nairobi, and this time, the event moves to Nakuru, further strengthening Egerton University’s role as a hub for research excellence.
