Cross-sectional survey finds high levels of depression among university students, indicating a need for targeted interventions.
Depression is a common cause of morbidity but prevalence levels among Kenyan university students are poorly understood.

Appropriate interventions should be set up in high institutions of learning to detect and treat these disorders paying particular attention to those at risk.
