However, approval was not granted for the B.Sc. (Ed) Accounting programme, due to the non- availability of the BMAS and the University does not have the programme as a teaching subject. The University is advised to apply for the B.Sc. Business Education programme instead. The University is advised to domicile the B.Sc. Nutrition and Dietetics programme in the Faculty of Basic Medical Sciences.
I am to add that the approval does not cover the part-time mode of delivery of the undergraduate programmes.
All programmes shall bear only the approved title and nomenclature and any change will require the approval of the Commission. The University is enjoined to provide adequate human and material resources for the development and growth of the approved programmes.
Please, accept the assurance of the Executive Secretary's highest regards
