The Technical University of Kenya aims to transition to a truly entrepreneurial university. To this end it is envisaged that each unit in the university will be made a cost centre, thus ensuring departments are run as businesses. The directorate of Entrepreneurship and Enterprise Development is responsible for all entrepreneurship activities in the University.
This directorate will also support key entrepreneurial intentions of the students to bring out their full entrepreneurial potential. This will involve impartation of enterprise skills to catalyse their entrepreneurial thinking and generation of entrepreneurial ideas.
The students will then be expected to develop these ideas up to formalization of actual enterprises.
