Ajayi Crowther University, Oyo has
established a Distance Learning Centre (DLC) and also a Centre for
Part-time Studies. The need for the creation of the DLC was predicated
on the imperative of expanding the frontiers of the university through
provision of formal education to numerous people who desire academic
advancement but are inhibited because of constraint of time.
In
the same vein, the creation of Centre for Part-time Studies has been
premised on the importance of broadening the horizon of the university
by means of running sandwich and conversion programmes. Consequently,
while Dr. O. F. Alabi, of the Department of Communication and Media
Studies, has been appointed as the Acting Director of the DLC, Dr.
Omosolape Owoseni of the Department of Business Administration has been
appointed as the Acting Director of the Centre for Part-time Studies.
The Centres have taken-off immediately.
The University Management has also re-introduced Pre-Degree Programme and has also restructured the existing Foundation Year Programme.
To this end, a Centre for Pre-Degree and Foundation Programme has been
established. Consequently, Dr. (Mrs.) E. Umoh of the Department of Earth
Sciences has been appointed as the Acting Director of the Centre
