History
The College was created from Embu Agricultural Staff Training (EAST) College in 2011, at which time President Mwai Kibaki inaugurated the EUC council to support its mission, pursuant to Legal Notice No. 65 of 17 June 2011.
The Embu Agricultural Staff Training (EAST) College was established in 1947 as an agriculture training school for pre-service training at certificate level to Kenya African Preliminary Examination (KAPE) students.
In 1968 the Centre was renamed Embu Institute of Agriculture and started admitting secondary school students for two-year certificate training as Technical Assistants.
In 1990 it was up-graded to an Agricultural Staff Training College whose mandate was to develop and implement short management and technical courses, and offer research and consultancy services to enhance performance in the agricultural sector.
in October 7, 2016 University of Embu was awarded a Charter by H.E. President Uhuru Kenyatta at a function held at the State house, Nairobi. In another development, Prof. Musili Wambua was appointed by H.E. President Uhuru Kenyatta as the first Chancellor of the New University of Embu.
