Murdoch College, a Perth-based institution renowned for its global outreach, has ignited excitement in Eldoret with an Open Day event.
The event, scheduled for Wednesday, May 7, at Metro Towers, has captured the attention of students and education enthusiasts in Kenya’s Rift Valley.
The Open Day, organised in partnership with Kaplan International Pathways, will run from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM on the 5th floor of Metro Towers.
Prospective students can explore over 200 courses, learn about scholarships offering up to 20% tuition discounts, and meet Murdoch College alumni.
Netizens highlight the college’s proactive support system, vibrant student clubs, and opportunities for volunteering in education, health, and environmental initiatives.
“Your world-class education starts with a single step — take it in Eldoret,” wrote one user, capturing the event’s aspirational tone.
Established in 1974, Murdoch University is Western Australia’s second-oldest university and boasts a five-star QS Stars Assessment rating for teaching quality and employability.
Its flexible admission system and research-driven programs have made it a draw for international students, particularly in Africa.
The Eldoret event marks a strategic push to attract Kenyan talent, with the city’s youthful population and growing reputation as an educational hub making it a prime location.
Others praised Murdoch’s focus on real-world impact, citing opportunities to engage in community-driven projects.
The event’s free entry and personalised course consultations have further fueled interest, positioning Eldoret as a gateway for global education.
However, some caution persists. Education experts advise students to verify scholarship terms and visa requirements, as international study involves significant financial and logistical planning.
