National Universities Commission has granted official approval for the reintroduction of management degree courses at the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital.
The approval, according to a statement issued on Monday by the acting head of the Public Relations department of the institution, Mr Olasunkanmi Olajide, followed a recent successful Resource Assessment Visit to examine the proposed courses by the NUC.
Olajide stated that the cheering news was contained in a letter dated October 17 and signed by Abubakar M. Girei, Acting Director, Academic Planning on behalf of the NUC Executive Secretary, Prof Abdullahi Ribadu
It will be recalled that FUNAAB had sometimes in 2017 started offering the management courses until 2018 when the former Minister of Education, Adamu Adamu urged the specialised universities to focus on their core mandate and stop delving into areas which was not part of the reason for which they were established.
