Our History

In 2013, a group of former students from Laikipia University saw it fit to start a powerful alumni association with the aim of connecting the alumni to the university and to each other. Hence the association was registered with the registrar of societies. Prior to registration, it was a requirement that the association has a constitution in place and an executive committee.

In December that same year, the association held its first free and fair election with Mr. Francis Kangure being elected the chairman of the association. In the same meeting, new members were registered and the constitution was adopted. So far, the association has a membership of over 200.

The alumni association members live in every county in Kenya, and in numerous countries around the world. Ultimately, the association aims to provide valued services to members, and to support the University’s mission of teaching, research, and service.
The association’s strategic plan provides a roadmap for the future focused on enhanced membership service, organizational growth, strengthened alumni engagement as well as relationship development with key stakeholders.
