Moi University has been name the best engineering institution of higher learning at the ongoing Eldoret Agricultural Society of Kenya (ASK) Show.
Moi University entered the tight competition in five categories, emerging second in the categories of Best Innovation and Invention Stand, Best Institution of Higher Learning in Developing Advanced Technology and Best Stand Embracing Information Technology and Communication System.
The university's show organising committee Vice Chairman Prof Timothy Sulo said that although the varsity website said the three categories slipped off the grip of the institution, they have learnt where to improve.
He said the university will focus on scooping all categories awards come next year.
“This is a learning point and we have identified areas where we need to improve so that we get top positions in all our entry categories at Eldoret show,” he said.
The winners of the various categories will be feted during the official opening of the show by President Uhuru Kenyatta.
Moi University is also set to participate in the forthcoming Commission of University Education (CUE) exhibition to be held in Mombasa between March 17 and 19.
