It is with joy and a great deal of humility that I accept the challenge of the Deanship of the IU School of Business.

Since I first time met the Chancellor, the Hon. FT Nyammo, the Vice Chancellor, Prof. Thairu, and the DVC, Ms. Wamuyu in Copenhagen in March 2009, I have been inspired by their vision to create a different kind of University in Kenya. Their idea coincided with my own experience of being one of the founders and the first Dean of the Scandinavian International Management Institute (SIMI) in 1991. Together with our students, my new IU colleagues, and the IU management we shall build an institution devoted to closing the traditional gap between on the one hand the needs of society, its business and private organizations and academia on the other hand.


Three elements shall help us in this process;

  • Stengthen the use of problem solving methodologies as an overall approach to learning at IU
  • Integration with the world of business and the public sector when planing our educational offerings and applied research
  • Involvement of our student body in the gradual transformation towards a preferred University

I look forward to working with you all, IU students, colleagues and management.

Dr. Niels Arnfred - Dean, School of Business
