The National Research Fund (NRF), in collaboration with Maasai Mara University, is proud to organize the Inaugural National Postgraduate Students Conference, a landmark event dedicated to fostering academic excellence, innovation, and collaboration among postgraduate scholars across Kenya. This conference aims to bring together postgraduate students funded by NRF, other development partners, and self-financed scholars, providing a dynamic platform to present their research findings for peer review and quality assurance. By enabling NRF to assess the quality and progress of research funded under various calls, the conference will play a critical role in generating monitoring, evaluation, and impact reports on postgraduate funding in Kenya. Through keynote speeches, panel discussions, and interactive sessions, participants will explore emerging trends, challenges, and opportunities in academia and research, bridging theory and practice to inspire cutting-edge solutions for societal transformation and drive national and global development. Join us as we celebrate the transformative power of research in shaping the future.
