Description

Established in 1948, the University of Ibadan, UI as it is fondly referred to, is the first University in Nigeria. Until 1962 when it became a full-fledged independent University, it was a College of the University of London in a special relationship scheme. The University, which took off with academic programmes in Arts, Science, and Medicine, is now a comprehensive citadel of learning with academic programmes in sixteen Faculties namely, Arts, Science, Basic Medical Sciences, Clinical Sciences, Agriculture, the Social Sciences, Education, Veterinary Medicine, Pharmacy, Technology, Law, Public Health, Dentistry, Economics, Renewable Natural Resources, and Environmental Design and Management. The Faculties of the Basic Medical Sciences, Clinical Sciences, Public Health, and Dentistry are organized as a College of Medicine. The University has other academic units among which are: the Institute of Child Health, Institute of Education, Institute of African Studies, Centre for Child Adolescent and Mental Health, Centre for Educational Media Resource Studies, African Regional Centre for Information Science (ARCIS), Centre for Peace and Conflict Studies (CEPACS), Centre for Petroleum, Energy, Economics and Law (CPEEL), Centre for Sustainable Development (CESDEV), and Centre for Entrepreneurship and Innovation (CEI), Institute for Advanced Medical Research and Training (IAMRAT), Centre for Drug Discovery, Development & Production (CDDDP), Centre for Control & Prevention of Zoonosis (CCPZ). A new National Institute for Maternal Child & Neonatal Health (NIMCNH) & Institute for Infectious Diseases are under construction. A new School of Business (UISB) is expected to take off later this year. The University, as part of efforts to fulfill a God-given mandate of promoting Nigeria’s development, established a Research Foundation (UIRF). In response to emerging threats to peace and peaceful co-existence in Africa, the University established the Institute for Peace and Strategic Studies (IPSS) to provide actionable studies and solutions.

The University of Ibadan Postgraduate School is, well acknowledged within and outside the country as one of the largest in Africa and the flagship of Postgraduate Education in Nigeria as it produces the much-required human resources for the entire Nigerian University system, the Nigerian public and private sectors, and beyond. Postgraduate School enrolment takes about 50% of the entire student enrolment. The University of Ibadan produces an average of 3,000 Masters & 250 Ph. Ds every year. The University currently hosts the Pan African University Life & Earth Sciences Institute on behalf of the West African Subregion. This is an initiative of the African Union. The programme is in its 2nd year and has 97 students from all over Africa. The main thrust of the University for the 21st century is to be a world-class institution for academic excellence geared towards meeting societal needs. Today, the University is consistently ranked among the most prestigious Universities in the world.

There are twelve Halls of Residence that provide accommodation for about 30% of the population of students in the regular studies mode, and three others are under construction with the support of the FG Revitalisation Funds. The University has 1212 housing units, out of which 609 units are occupied by senior staff and 603 units by junior staff. The University of Ibadan is, therefore, a truly complex organization. Its governance is based on the Committee System; all the Boards and Committees report to Council and/or Senate. In order to carry out its main functions of teaching, research, and community service, the University has been providing to a large extent, basic services like electricity and water supply, security, health facilities, and other municipal services to its staff and students.

Through its alumni and alumnae, the University of Ibadan has, in the past six decades contributed significantly to the political, industrial, economic, and cultural development of Nigeria.

These graduates, staff, and students are making a great impact on the world through their new discoveries, innovations, and inventions in science, medicine, agriculture, business, and technology. No doubt, the University’s commitment to academic excellence enables them to fly high.

UI looks forward to an exciting future!
