An Expansion in Academic Programmes
After a thorough resource verification visit conducted by a panel of experts, the Executive Secretary has approved the establishment of five new full-time undergraduate programmes at NSUK. These courses will be available at the University’s Main Campus and will commence from the 2023/2024 academic session. The approved courses include:
- B.Eng. Civil Engineering
- B.Eng. Electrical and Electronics Engineering
- B.Eng. Chemical Engineering
- B.Sc. Community Health Science
- B.Sc. Health Information Management
These newly approved programmes underscore NSUK’s commitment to diversifying its academic offerings and equipping students with a broad range of skills and knowledge to meet the demands of various industries.
A Call for Resource Improvement
While celebrating this approval, the University has also been advised to augment its library resources, particularly the holdings of books and journals. This improvement will further enhance the learning experience of students and support the successful delivery of these new courses.
It’s worth noting that the approval is exclusive to the full-time mode of delivery of these programmes and does not extend to part-time modes. Moreover, all programmes should bear only the approved titles and nomenclatures, and any changes would require further approval from the Commission.
A Step Forward: The Impact on NSUK and its Community
The approval of these new programmes signifies a great step forward for NSUK. It provides more options for students pursuing higher education and aligns with the University’s goal of continually improving its academic offerings.
The University is reminded of its responsibility to provide adequate human and material resources for the development and growth of the approved programmes. By meeting these expectations, NSUK will ensure the programmes’ longevity and their capacity to equip students with the relevant skills and knowledge in their chosen fields.
In Conclusion: Embracing Growth and Innovation
The addition of these new courses in the 2023/2024 academic session shows NSUK’s commitment to growth, innovation, and the provision of diverse, high-quality academic programmes. The University community and prospective students eagerly anticipate the successful commencement of these programmes and the broadened academic opportunities they present. As always, NSUK continues to make strides in its mission to provide comprehensive, excellent education tailored to the evolving needs of its student population.
