Market Overview
Altogether, there are about 100 universities in East Africa, both public and private, with Kenya hosting the highest number, 40.

The main subject areas are: business and finance, medicine and related sciences, IT, engineering, hotel management, humanities, law, MBA, and distant learning amon
