History
Sponsored by the Kenya Institute of Management (KIM), MUA was established in September, 2011 when it got its Letter of Interim Authority (LIA) from the Commission for Higher Education granting it mandate to operate as a University.
The establishment of MUA followed the decision of the sponsor to transform the KIM School of Management into a University. Conceived with the working person in mind, this decision was an appreciation of the working executive’s keen desire to address known and existing problems in the workplace.
The Institute observed that for such problems to be dealt with effectively there was need for leaders who were espoused excellence in business leadership thus leading to positive change.
MUA Awarded Charter
The dream of every University is to get a Charter. MUA was awarded its Charter by His Excellency, Dr William Samoei Ruto, the President of the Republic of Kenya at State House, Nairobi on May 2, 2024, at 1.45 pm. This award is a huge achievement and milestone in the history of our university and particularly to all the University’s stakeholders especially the students, the sponsor, governance, and the staff.
The charter brought to the university a new lease of life characterized with authority, independence, autonomy, responsibility, and accountability.
