BREAKING!!! NUC DROPS
WARNING – If You Are
Studying Any Of These Courses
In Nigerian Universities, You Are
Not in School (SEE LIST)
List of courses that have not been accredited in
Nigerian universities have been released – A
certificate issued for those courses will be
considered void
– The university of Abuja has the highest number
of unaccredited courses The National Universities
Commission (NUC) has released a list of some
courses that have not been accredited.
The unaccredited courses pose serious danger to
students who study them as the certificates issued
by these universities for the courses will not be
officially recognised.
Premium Times reports that 2016 accreditation
status report indicated that these unaccredited
courses were taught in 37 out of 143 universities in
the country. The Quality Assurance Department of
the NUC is in charge of accrediting courses in the
universities.
The NUC insists that for a course to be accredited,
it must meet the Benchmark Minimum Academic
Standards (BMAS) that has been stipulated by the
commission. Some of the requirements include:
“qualified faculty members, good learning
environment and adequate teaching materials –
equipment, books and journals”.
According to the NUC, accreditation is necessary to
ensure “employers and other members of the
community that Nigerian graduates of all academic
programmes have attained an acceptable level of
competency in their areas of specialization.” It
also says it is also important to certify courses to
assure “the international community that the
programmes offered in Nigerian Universities are of
high standards and that graduates of the
institutions are adequate for employment and
further studies.”
According to the commission, the pre-accreditation
process include “drawing up a list of academic
programmes to be certified, compilation of list of
panel chairmen/members, time-tabling, budgeting
and organizing the accreditation coordination
meeting for panel chairmen and members in a
simulation workshop.”
The post-accreditation activities include “analyzing
accreditation reports (technical and
administrative), ranking of programmes and
universities based on their accreditation status,
publishing of accreditation status of programmes,
issuance of certificates to programmes that earned
Full and Interim accreditation results.”
According to Premium Times, 13 federal
universities, 16 state universities and eight private
universities were running courses that had not
been accredited. Some of the high profile
institutions include University of Nigeria, Nsukka;
University of Benin, University of Jos, University of
Calabar. The biggest casualty seems to be the
University of Abuja which has 15 of its courses,
including Law, unaccredited. See full list of
