	&lt;p&gt;ANU provides yet another greater opportunity for progress in learning by offering a bridging course in Mathematics for those who do not meet our departmental minimum requirements. A minimum grade of (C+) in Mathematics is required for entry into the Computer Science program, (C) plain for Commerce and a (D) plain for our Pre-University program. At times some of our applicants do not meet these standards hence they are subjected to the bridging course. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;We therefore provide a comprehensive and up to standard two and half month bridging program at our town campus with a very high interactive class sessions between the lecturer and the students. Classes are offered twice a week at a convenient time for all and crucial topics such as Algebra, Geometry and Calculus are adequately covered during the entire period of study. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Our bridging grandaunts have always stood out to be the best in their respective programs with adequate skills to handle their subject without any major difficulties. &lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;Christian ministry short courses &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;The Christian Ministries and Training department is the arm of Daystar University devoted to assisting the church in Africa outside the formal classroom situation to become more effective by providing training. CMT shares the overall purpose of Daystar University to make the church more effective through training. CMT is a programme under the Faculty of Arts. It is through this programme that Daystar University carries out most of its community outreach programmes by offering short courses and out-posts courses. The Short courses are done at the Nairobi Campus of the University, while the outpost courses are done at locations suggested by the hosts. In the year 2005, CMT offered over 40 short courses ranging from one to three weeks. A total of 600 participants from Kenya , Uganda , Nigeria , Ethiopia , Sudan , Democratic Republic of Congo, Rwanda , Burundi and Tanzania were trained. CMT had also 500 participants in 10 outpost courses for churches, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and Para-church organizations in Kenya and Tanzania . &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Thus, the goals of CMT may be stated as follows: &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt; 1. To provide practical ministry skills and shape knowledge, values and attitudes that is biblically based. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt; 2. To equip and empower church leaders to more effectively serve the church. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;To achieve the above training goals, CMT focuses on learners who: &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt; 1. are already in church leadership positions, or &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt; 2. are involved in church-related ministries, or &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt; 3. are ministering through organizations with Christian goals. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Further, teaching methods utilize adult education, non-formal learning practices. Thus, learners are expected to be fully involved in their learning and be able to practice and apply new learning into their current work situations. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;In summary, the main activity of CMT is to provide practical training to current church leaders for greater effectiveness within the church and communities where they serve. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;The certificate courses, often adapted from various academic departmental courses, are offered for short periods each year. In addition, CMT through the Outpost wing if the department offers tailor-made short courses to special interest groups or churches. Again, such courses are geared to strengthening the church in Africa in its mission outreach and spiritual formation. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Short-term courses (six weeks or less) are offered in: &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt; ·  Christian Counseling &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt; ·  Christian Music Communication &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt; ·  Communication &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt; ·  Business and Leadership &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt; ·  Community Development &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt; ·  Bible and Religious Studies &lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt; ·  Logistics/Supply Chain Management &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt; ·  Environmental Management &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Outpost Training Option &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;By and large, expense and distance often make it very difficult to send organization members for training at Daystar. Many times organizations need something specifically designed for their members. The Outpost training programme of Daystar University was designed just to answer those issues. What are the training needs of the people in your ministry? Would your members benefit from training specifically developed for them? Would you like to work hand-in-hand with Daystar University faculty to design and implement training for your organization? The Outpost training programme can design, develop, implement and evaluate almost any type of training which the Church in Africa needs. We can bring training to you. Wherever your organization needs training – Nairobi , Mombasa , Kisumu , Kampala , Lagos , Bombay , Cairo , or anywhere else, Daystar University can come to you. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Write to the Christian Ministries Training Coordinator and tell us about the problems and needs facing your organization which you expect training to address. We a clear understanding of what you envision to be the content of such training. Tell us more about the proposed participants. What experience do they have with the issues to be covered? What is their educational background and what language would be used for the training? &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;At a very reasonable cost, Daystar University will work with you to bring the best in training to your members, right in the context where they live, work and minister. &lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;Master in Theology - MTh &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Goals of the Postgraduate Programme&lt;br&gt;
The Daystar University Postgraduate Studies Programme , within the Faculty of Arts, currently includes the Master of Arts (M.A) in Communication, M.A in Christian Ministries and a Master in Theology ( MTh .). They are two-year (full-time) degree programmes . Several other postgraduate programmes are housed in their respective faculties (See Faculty of Social Sciences and Faculty of Science and Technology). A Ph.D programme in Communication, Theology, and/or related interdisciplinary studies has been approved within the Faculty of Arts. Contact the Postgraduate Studies Department for details. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Postgraduate programmes at Daystar University are designed to prepare key individuals for leadership roles in the church and society. It is expected that graduates, whether church leaders, educators, researchers, or professionals in the marketplace, will play an important role in helping the church to effectively communicate the message of Jesus Christ to a rapidly changing world. It is expected that they will be equipped to contribute to constructive changes in society within the African context and beyond, for the furthering of the Kingdom of God as preached by Jesus Christ. The programme goals are as follows: &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;1. By building on undergraduate training, the student will train to an academic level consistent with high leadership responsibility in churches, Para-church organizations or society in general; &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;2. The student will be able to demonstrate skills in analysis, synthesis, evaluation and constructive criticism in his or her discipline of study, so as to contribute to the ongoing development of human knowledge and the leadership of others within a multicultural world. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;3. The student will be able to demonstrate competence in both theory and practice within the field of study, comprehend, communicate, and apply the acquired skills within the realities of the contemporary African context. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;4. The student will be able to articulate and live out his or her Christian faith at a level consistent with the level of academic training within the field of discipline. The integration of faith, field of expertise, and praxis will be evidenced in their lives. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;COMMON REGULATIONS &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;1. Admission Requirements &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;a. Direct Entry &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;(1) General Academic Requirements: The minimum entry requirement shall be possession of an undergraduate degree from an accredited institution of higher learning, with a cumulative grade point average of at least 3.0 (on a 4.0 scale), or the degree awarded with a first class or upper second class honors, or the equivalent. In unusual cases, a student may be considered who has not met the minimum academic requirement, but who is mature in age, has significant relevant work experience after completion of the undergraduate degree, and is able to demonstrate competence equivalent to the academic requirements. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;(2) Language Proficiency: The student must exhibit sufficient mastery of the English language to study in classes taught in English, as demonstrated by a score of 500 or higher on the Test of English as a Foreign Language, or an equivalent score on the British English language examination (International English Language Test), or on an examination set by the University. Students from Anglophone countries will be exempted from the test, though the University may request any student to sit for a diagnostic English examination if the academic staff believes the student's mastery of English may be insufficient. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;(3) Bible and Theology Proficiency: The student must demonstrate proficiency in a basic knowledge of Bible and theology, such as a Christian lay leader should have, as demonstrated either by standardized written examination set by the University, with a pass mark of 60%, or by undergraduate credit in survey courses covering Old Testament, New Testament, and Theology. (Those lacking the required background in Bible and Theology may enroll in the necessary undergraduate courses at Daystar, but without University credit for them, or participate in an equivalent course as approved by the Chair of Department). &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;(4) Computer Proficiency: The student must possess basic computer competency in word processing, be able to type at least 20 words per minute, and able to do basic formatting of a document. If lacking this competency, the student is expected to gain this competence within the first term, to be able to write papers and projects to a master's level standard. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;(5) Christian Faith: The University shall admit for study for degrees, diplomas, certificates or other awards of the University, such candidates as shall have been accepted by the Senate as being academically qualified, and who accept the University's Christian mission and philosophy as provided under Sections 6 and 7 of the Charter, (Page 3-6 of this Catalogue) without regard or preference to gender, ethnic origin, race, age or physical disability being imposed as a condition for admission. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;b. Admission from other Institutions&lt;br&gt;
Daystar will accept credits of B or better for relevant masters level courses from recognized accredited universities, up to a maximum of 25% of the total course work required and 25% of the course work in the major area of study. No credit for thesis may be transferred and the written comprehensive examination must be taken at Daystar. Credits cannot be transferred for courses that have already earned one an academic certificate. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;2. Course Load &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;a. The normal class load for full time post graduate students is between 9 and 12 credit hours per semester. No student will be permitted to enroll for more than 15 credit hours (exclusive of thesis) of course work in any semester. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;b. A student whose cumulative grade point average falls below 3.00 will be required to enroll for fewer credits than normal until his/her cumulative grade point average rises to the minimum of 3.00. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;3. Probation and Discontinuation &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;a. Each student working towards the M.A. degree must maintain a minimum cumulative grade point average of 3.00 throughout one's programme . &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;b. A student is placed on academic probation at the conclusion of any semester in which one's cumulative grade point average falls below the required standard. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;c. Action will be initiated by the Dean's office to help the student on probation to overcome one's academic problems, and will include a restriction on total course load permitted in any given semester. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;d. A student can be on probation for a maximum of two semesters throughout the programme . Students who exceed this number are discontinued from their studies and are ineligible for further post graduate enrollment at Daystar. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;e. Special students (not formally admitted to the degree programme ) are considered, for purposes of this statute, to be on probation at the time of first enrollment. They, therefore, must perform well enough (a minimum of GPA of 3.00) on their first semester to be able to continue. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;4. Special Students&lt;br&gt;
Only persons who are eligible for admission into particular programmes can enroll as special students. Such students will be enrolled for a maximum of one academic year only. Students who wish to continue beyond this period must apply for admission into the regular programmes . &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;5. Student Assessment &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;a. Continuous assessment shall be part of each student's evaluation throughout the degree programme . Tests, assignments, term papers, practical work, etc., will be included in the calculation of one's final mark for a given course. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;b. In addition to the continuous assessment, a final examination shall be administered at the end of each semester and the marks scored will be added to the continuous assessment in accordance with the special regulations for each degree programme . &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;c. For each course the student is given a letter grade, which has the following significance: &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;( i ) All grades below D will carry no credit and will be calculated as '0' grade point. A course receiving less than a C grade must be repeated in order to receive credit. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;(ii) Students will be allowed to repeat failed required courses only twice. Repeated courses will receive a grade not higher than C. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;(iii) A cumulative grade point average (GPA) of at least 3.00 must be maintained in order to continue studies in good standing. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;(iv) Courses which are required but carry no credit are not used in calculating the grade point average. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;(v) The grade point average (GPA) for a student is obtained by dividing the total number of credits attempted into the total number of grade points obtained. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;6. Incompletes&lt;br&gt;
A student must make up any incomplete work within six weeks after the semester's end. If one does not do so, the incomplete grade will be changed to 'F'. (This policy does not apply to incomplete grades in thesis hours, since thesis may be prepared over several semesters, and no grade is assigned until completion of the full project). &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;7. Graduation Requirements&lt;br&gt;
Each student will satisfy the requirements specified in the departmental special regulations for his/her degree programme . &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;8. Class Attendance&lt;br&gt;
It is assumed that students will make the most of the educational opportunities available to them by regularly and punctually attending all class sessions. Students who miss more than 25% of class sessions will receive no credit for the course. If a student must be absent from classes for a very good reason, he/she must fill in absence-from-class forms which are obtained from the office of Admission and Records. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;9. Auditing of Courses&lt;br&gt;
A student may audit any course in this Catalogue, as long as one's presence as an auditor does not displace someone taking the course for credit. Enrolling for audit permits one to attend lectures and to participate in various class activities, but no academic credit is earned for the experience. The instructor may mark assignments submitted by the auditor but is not obligated to do so. For a person to audit an M.A. course, one must satisfy the requirements for admission to the M.A. programme and the special pre-requisites of the course. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;10. Course Numbering&lt;br&gt;
Only courses carrying a number of 600 or above following the subject prefix (e.g. GRA 611) gain post graduate credits for the student completing them. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;11. Adding or Dropping of Courses &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;a. Students may add or drop courses from their schedules without financial penalty during the first week of a course that runs for a full semester. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;b. The last day to add a course is the last working day of the second week after continuing students have reported. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;c. Such changes are not allowed during the June-August semester except in cases of emergency approved by the Faculty Board. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;12. Withdrawal &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;a. If a student must, for some personal emergency, withdraw from a course after the deadline for routine changes has expired, he may do so only as long as two thirds (2/3) of the course has not passed, but the student's transcript will show one's performance. Withdrawals will be noted by 'WP' (Withdrawing Passing) or 'WF' (Withdrawing Failing) depending on whether the student was passing or failing at the time of withdrawal. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;b. After 2/3 of the course has passed, the student may not withdraw from any course, unless there is a pressing personal emergency or illness that requires it. Then one must petition to the Faculty Board to do so. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;13. Transcripts&lt;br&gt;
All grades for course work must be recorded on the student's transcript and averaged into the grade point average (except those courses carrying no credit are not calculated into the cumulative grade point average). If a student fails a course or gets a grade less than C and retakes the course, the F grade will remain on the transcript but the new grade, which can only be a maximum of C, will be averaged in the grade point average in place of the old one. A failed course can be retaken only twice. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;14. University Examinations &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;a. University examinations shall be conducted at the end of every semester over course work taught in that semester. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;b. The comprehensive written examination for all Masters degree candidates will be administered to the student at the end of his/her third semester, and/or after having completed a minimum of 36 course credits. Practicum credits are not counted toward the 36 credit minimum. One must have a cumulative GPA of 3.00 to sit for this examination, and one must pass the comprehensive examination with a minimum of 3.00. Any final mark lower than 3.00 requires a retaking of the entire examination. If one's final mark is above 3.00, but one or more of the questions receives a mark of "C" or below, only the question(s) failed needs to be repeated. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;c. A student may not defend his/her completed thesis before sitting and passing the comprehensive written examination for the Masters degree. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;15. Academic Dishonesty in Examinations&lt;br&gt;
In the event of an alleged examination irregularity, the same shall be reported to the Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Academic) who will consult with the Chairman of the Senate and make an appropriate decision. Where the matter will require investigation, the Senate shall appoint a committee that shall investigate the alleged irregularity. Any person involved in the alleged irregularity shall be required to appear before this committee. The Chairman of the said committee shall then report the findings and the recommendations of the committee to the Vice-Chancellor who on behalf of the Senate shall decide what further action may be necessary. Such action shall be reported to the Senate at its next meeting for ratification. Such disciplinary action taken shall be in accordance with the procedures and regulations established by the Senate. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;16. Time Limit for Degree Work&lt;br&gt;
For the Masters degree, all work must be completed within five (5) years from the time of admission into the programme . Extension of time may be granted by the Senate only for good reasons, upon application through the Chair of Postgraduate Studies Department and the related Dean. Consult the Department for time limit for other pending programmes (postgraduate diploma and Ph.D ). A student must be fully registered in the semester he/she plans to graduate. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;17. Late Assignments and Examinations&lt;br&gt;
Each faculty member is asked to state in the course outline his/her policy concerning acceptance of late assignments and examinations in the course. Normally, such work can be made up only for good reason (e.g. serious illness, death in the immediate family etc.). IN NO CASE WILL EXAMINATIONS BE GIVEN EARLY. If circumstances warrant, they may be given late and the student may be charged a grade penalty and/or a late examination fee. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;18. Additional Information&lt;br&gt;
More information on each programme or course is found in the complete syllabus on file in the office of the Department Head. For more Financial Information see pages 8-11 of this Catalogue. &lt;/p&gt;

PC ENGINEERING 1 &amp; 2 ( A+ CERTIFICATION) &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;CompTIA A+ Examination Objectives &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Introduction &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;In order to receive CompTIA A+ certification a candidate must pass two exams. The first exam is CompTIA A+ Essentials . Objectives for the CompTIA A+ Essentials Examination are available for public review at &lt;a href="http://www.comptia.org"&gt;www.comptia.org&lt;/a&gt; . &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;The CompTIA A+ 220-602 exam is targeted for individuals who work or intend to work in a mobile or corporate technical environment with a high level of face-to-face client interaction. Job titles in some organizations which are descriptive of the role of this individual may be: Enterprise technician, IT administrator, field service technician, PC technician, etc. Ideally, the CompTIA A+ 220-602 candidate has already passed the CompTIA A+ Essentials examination. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;Individuals in some non-technical roles such as student, sales personnel or small business office managers may also find the validation of skills associated with the CompTIA A+ credential to be valuable. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;CompTIA recently convened a core of CompTIA A+ subject matter experts representing a diverse group of employers, educators and IT professionals which resulted in the revised CompTIA A+ examinations objectives. The skills and knowledge measured by these objectives were validated through a survey of more then 5,000 CompTIA A+ certified professionals and employers. The results of the survey were used in weighting the domains and ensuring that the weighting is representative of the relative importance of that content to the job requirements of an entry-level IT professional. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;This examination blueprint includes domain weighting, test objectives, and example content. Example topics and concepts are included to clarify the test objectives and should not be construed as a comprehensive listing of all the content of this examination. &lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;The table below lists the domains measured by this examination and the extent to which they are represented. &lt;/p&gt;
