The PhD in Statistics is a doctoral programme offered by Kenyan universities, designed to provide advanced training and research opportunities in mathematical and statistical sciences. The programme is accredited by the Commission for University Education (CUE) and delivered through coursework, seminars, and independent research. Students engage with statistical modelling, probability theory, data analysis, and mathematical computation through a structured curriculum that combines theoretical foundations with practical applications. The programme emphasises quantitative analysis, statistical inference, and data-driven decision-making and prepares scholars to contribute original research to the discipline. Kenya's data-driven decision-making is increasingly important across all sectors in Kenya. The programme addresses national development priorities and aligns with Kenya's Vision 2030, which emphasises the need for highly trained professionals in mathematical sciences. Graduates are equipped to tackle complex challenges facing the country and the East African region. Teaching methods include lectures, seminars, laboratory sessions where applicable, fieldwork, and supervised research. Students work closely with faculty supervisors to develop their research proposals, conduct original research, and produce a thesis or dissertation that contributes new knowledge to the field. Graduates pursue careers as university lecturers, statisticians, data scientists, and quantitative analysts in universities, research institutions, government agencies, non-governmental organisations, and private sector firms. The programme provides a strong foundation for academic careers and leadership roles in mathematical sciences. This programme is ideal for individuals with a strong academic background in mathematics, statistics, or a related quantitative field who are passionate about research and advancing knowledge in mathematical and statistical sciences. It suits those who wish to contribute to policy development, innovation, and evidence-based decision-making in Kenya and beyond.

The Postgraduate Diploma in Environmental and Social Sciences Research Methods is a programme that equips students with advanced knowledge and practical skills in research methodologies applicable to environmental and social sciences. Offered at Egerton University through the Faculty of Environment and Resource Development, the programme prepares professionals to design, conduct and manage research in environmental and social contexts. The curriculum covers research design, quantitative research methods, qualitative research methods, environmental research methods, social research methods, data collection techniques, statistical analysis, data management, research ethics, proposal writing, research project management and a research project. Students develop both theoretical knowledge and practical skills in research methodology. The programme responds to the need for trained researchers who can conduct rigorous environmental and social research to inform policy, programmes and development interventions. It provides a solid foundation for professionals working in research institutions, government agencies, NGOs and academia. The programme is delivered through full-time and part-time modes, with lectures, research seminars, data analysis workshops, field research exercises and a supervised research project. Students gain hands-on experience through field data collection, statistical analysis and a research project. Graduates pursue careers as research officers, data analysts, monitoring and evaluation officers, research consultants and project coordinators in research institutions, government agencies, NGOs and international organisations. They can also progress to a Master's degree in environmental or social sciences. Prospective students should have a background in environmental sciences, social sciences or a related field and interest in research methodology. The programme is suitable for professionals seeking to strengthen their research skills.

The Postgraduate Diploma in Environmental and Sustainable Development is a programme that equips students with knowledge and skills in environmental management, sustainable development and natural resource governance.
