University of Ilesa Governing Council Ratifies New Faculty Establishment
"The Governing Council of the University of Ilesa has approved the creation of a new faculty to expand academic offerings."
In a significant move to broaden its academic scope, the University of Ilesa’s Governing Council has officially ratified the establishment of a new faculty. The decision follows a formal proposal submitted by the University Senate, reflecting the institution's commitment to diversifying its educational portfolio and addressing current market needs.
This expansion is part of the university's broader development plan to improve research and learning capacity. The establishment of the new faculty is expected to lead to the introduction of several innovative degree programmes starting from the 2026/2027 academic session. Details regarding the specific departments and admission requirements for these new programmes will be released by the office of the Registrar in the coming weeks.
The university remains focused on maintaining its core values of 'Knowledge, Virtue, and Wisdom' as it grows. This development is seen as a major milestone for the state-owned institution as it strives to compete effectively with other public universities in the region. Students and stakeholders are encouraged to keep an eye on the official university portal for announcements regarding course accreditation and faculty recruitment.
