GLUK campus
The city campus of GLUK provides students with countless opportunities for work and recreation — from sitting in a coffee shop with a laptop to internships at large companies. Kisumu has a well developed entertainment infrastructure, but the rhythm of the big city can be distracting for some students. University students have access to the library. It contains a collection of scientific papers, textbooks and fiction. Student life at GLUK is filled with intercultural activities, as not only local students study here, but also students from abroad. The exchange of knowledge and experience, networking and new acquaintances — all this is an integral part of studenthood.
If you want to stay in Kenya after graduation, one of your options is to apply for a work visa. To do this, you need to get an offer from an employer. You can find other options for immigration in our article.
