MKU's founder, Prof. Simon Gicharu, shared a personal anecdote that underscores the importance of language skills. During a tour in Germany, Prof. Gicharu encountered a language barrier that led to the unexpected loss of his camera. He remarked, "This experience taught me the crucial role of linguistic and cultural understanding," highlighting the real-life applications of the program's language training.
