Program overview
Assignment to either of the categories isnot a permanent status, universities are required to build their capacity and progress to category B.
Provisions exist for increasing or reducing the number of departments qualified to offer the degree, and this is based on performance and evaluation.

Core courses: 9 – 12 months
Elective courses: 3 months at theCMAP-Joint Facility for Electives (JFE)in Nairobi
