This grant is to fund a joint project between  Valley View University and  Kenyatta University, Kenya. 

The two Universities have signed an MOU to determine the effective conditions and mechanisms as well as challenges of a cross-institutional collaborative approach to curriculum design and implementation. At the end of the project, the two will come out with a tool that will highlight the important elements to be considered during any curriculum design or implementation; a report on mechanisms and conditions that are most effective in meeting the goals of a cross-institutional collaborative approach to curriculum design and implementation.  At the end of this project, there will be two approved and complete draft curricula, one from each University.

At Valley View University, the grant will help enhance curriculum implementation at the Biomedical Engineering Department and is being supervised by the Research and Innovation unit of the Centre for Academic Research and Engaged Scholarship (CARES)

Sustaining Technical and Analytic Resources (STAR) is a project of the Public Health Institute implemented in partnership with Johns Hopkins University, the Consortium of Universities for Global Health and University of California at San Francisco.
