WELCOME TO A UNIQUE EXPERIENCE

It is with great pleasure that I welcome on behalf of the entire Baze University Community, the new students who just joined us and felicitate with the returning students who passed their examinations and proceeded to the next level of studies. Similarly, with happiness, I congratulate those who have successfully graduated. The year 2020 as we all note has been an exceptionally difficult period following the outbreak of Covid-19, its challenge to our well-being and especially its disruption of inperson educational services worldwide. Happily, Baze University has been one of the few institutions worldwide that leveraged on its robust ICT infrastructure to maintain services and calendar uninterrupted. We commend staff and students who lived up to this challenge successfully. To the new students, we welcome you to the new normal.

Baze University offers unique opportunities to students to pursue their passion, and educational aspirations as a preparation for a career of their choice. We are delighted to report that Baze University has commenced the much awaited programmes in the Medical Sciences viz: MBBS, Degrees in Radiography and Radiation Science, Medical Laboratory Sciences and Public Health.

Overall, the University creates an all-inclusive suitable environment for learning, sports, recreation and appropriate social engagements. An acknowledged hallmark of the University is the availability of high-quality staff who have uniquely combined academic distinction with industry experience. In a similar context, the university provides students in all the disciplines an industry experience through its mandatory SIWES (Student Industrial Work Experience Scheme) programme. This ensures that the graduate acquires knowledge and skills that are readily useful upon employment.

Furthermore, to safeguard the quality and sanctity of its certificates, the University ensures that all programmes due for accreditation are presented as and when due. To date, all the programmes offered in the University have been accredited by the National Universities Commission and other regulatory bodies. Since the last convocation, the University has hosted some major academic events, local and international conferences.

The University has continued to strengthen its policies, practices and procedures on students’ conduct on campus, such that habits which impair mental health and well-being of students due to the use of hard drugs and other anti-social behaviors are nipped in the bud in partnership with parents. The University will continue to robustly engage students on this and many other policies through the Student’s Representative Council which is expected to give a responsible voice to the entire student’s body.

In conclusion students are enjoined to utilize the opportunity provided by the University to explore their talents and strengths.
