The Multimedia University of Kenya (MMU) is a public university located in Nairobi. The university offers IT & related courses, Mass media, Business, Engineering, Physical Sciences (Physics and Chemistry) and Social sciences education.
The university has two campuses:

In 2008, it was upgraded under Legal Notice No. 155 of 2008 to Multimedia University College of Kenya as a constituent college of Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology.
After an inspection conducted by the Commission for University Education, a body set aside by the Kenyan government to oversee the quality of higher education in the country, the immediate former president, Hon.
