      6. B.Sc. Communication and Media Studies
      7. B.Sc. Economics

A third faculty, the Faculty of Natural Sciences took-off in November 2006 when the 2006/2007 Session commenced.  It offers degree programmes in:

1. Microbiology
2. Biochemistry
3. Industrial Chemistry
4. Geology and Mineral Sciences
5. Computer Science with ICT OPTION
6. Physics with Electronics

The Accrediting Agency, the National Universities Commission (NUC), most recent visit was in June 2010 to 11 programmes in the University.  The report of the accreditation showed that all our programmes were accredited.  Out of a total 0f 13 programmes run by the University, 5 had full accreditation while 8 had interim accreditation status.
Our curriculum is oriented towards turning out graduate entrepreneurs and professionals rather than job seeker.  Thus, our Entrepreneurial Development Centre has become a beehive of practical activities that attracts and brings out the creativity in our students.  In May 2010, the Entrepreneurial Development Centre had an exhibition week of student output in fashion design, interior decoration, photography, tie and dye, and beads making.  The exhibition was well advertised and visited by the immediate community of the university.  As a result of the interest shown by the students, we are exploring the addition of some other creative and ultimately lucrative activities to those on offer.  What we keep drumming into the ears of our students is to engage their intellect, time and hands to eventually become self-employed and even become employers of labour.

One of our Centres of excellence is in the Faculty of Social and Management Sciences where the Department of Communication and Media Studies has acquired three new training studios for our students.  These are:
(a) Print and News Media Studio;
(b) Photo Journalism Studio, and
(c) Public Relations and Advertising Studio. 
Today, the state-of- the-art-studios of our Communication and Media Studies Department are acclaimed to be the best training studios in Nigeria.
Our students during the 2009/2010 session, achieved feats before they even wrote their final year degree examinations.  Two (2) students from Department of Accounting and Finance qualified as Chartered Accountants while one (1) qualified as ACCA of London.  In the Department of Economics, one student qualified as a Chartered Accountant while two other students successfully completed the latest Version of the Oracle Database Administration.

We are in the throes of adding two more faculties – that of Environmental Sciences and Law to complement our existing three Faculties.
