We are happy to report that all activities of the university had progressed seamlessly. Baze University has had no history of labour shutdowns as was witnessed during the recently suspended eight months strike action of the Academic Staff Union of public universities. At Baze, we collectively ensure that schooling is made easier with a synchronous system of virtual and in-person learning that expose students to the very best pedagogical methods in global best practices.
In addition to this, Management has put in place efficient policies that guide the delivery of all academic activities and security measures that safeguard lives and properties. The University also provides robust pastoral care to support learning. In this regard, new students hostels with over 700-room capacity is at advanced stage while the University Hospital has commenced activities in earnest.
Over the years, the institution has established itself as a citadel of learning and an ivory tower for youths that desire knowledge in various fields of study including Medical Sciences, Computing and Applied Sciences, Law, Engineering, Environmental Sciences and Management and Social Sciences. The University continues to affirm the sanctity and standard of its certificates by ensuring that all matured programmes are duly accredited by the relevant academic and professional regulatory bodies.
Recently, the National Universities Commission approved the mounting of PhD in sixteen programmes including Accounting, International Relations & Diplomacy, Business Management, Sociology & Anthropology, Computer Science, Mass Communication, Economics, Biology, Law, Clinical Psychology, Engineering - Mechanical, Civil, Petroleum & Gas, Electrical Electronics; Quantity Surveying and Microbiology. Necessary arrangements are being put in place to ensure that these programmes commence in 2023.
Baze University invests heavily on staff development and maintains robust collaboration with different stakeholders to provide a multidimensional learning for the students. The increasing number of our alumni with national and international recognitions and awards is a testament to our academic prowess and efficiency. We remain resolute in our efforts to maintain excellent academic environment that enables development of skills and grooms talents in all our students.
