With the accreditation for six new programmes, FUOYE’s postgraduate programmes are now 36.

Professor Soremekun expressed his delight that the efforts of his administration to reposition FUOYE have started yielding positive results, as evident in the many infrastructural projects dotting the landscape of the twin campuses of the university in Oye and Ikole, and the ever increasing admission quota and students’ enrolment, among others.

He also revealed that the management would today (Thursday, September 26) sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) that would empower the university to run Distance Learning programmes after the NUC’s accreditation on the programmes.
