  • University Education Finance and Cost Sharing in Nigeria: Considerations for Policy Direction
    0 University Education Finance and Cost Sharing in Nigeria: Considerations for Policy Direction 1Maruff A. Oladejo, 2Gbolagade M. Olowo, & 3Tajudeen A. Azees 1Department of Educational Management, University of Lagos, Akoka, 2Department of Educational Foundations, Federal College of Education (Sp), Oyo 3Department of Curriculum & Instructions, Emmanuel Alayande College of Education, Oyo 0 1 Abstract Higher education in general and university education in particular is an educational investment which brings with it, economic returns both for individuals and society. Hence, its proper funding towards the attainment of its lofty goals should be the collective responsibility of every stakeholders. This paper therefore discussed university education finance and cost sharing in Nigeria. The concepts of higher education and higher education finance were examined, followed by the philosophical and the perspectives of university education in Nigeria. The initiative of private funding of education vis-à-vis Tertiary Education Trust Fund (Tetfund) was brought to the fore. The paper further examined cost structure and sharing in Nigerian university system. It specifically described cost sharing as a shift in the burden of higher education costs from being borne exclusively or predominately by government, or taxpayers, to being shared with parents and students. Findings showed that Tetfund does not really provide for students directly. As regards students in private universities in Nigeria, and that private sector has never been involved in funding private universities. It was recommended among others that there is the need to re-engineer policies that will ensure effective financial accountability to prevent fiscal failure in Nigerian higher educational institutions, as well as policies which will ensure more effective community and individual participation such that government will be able to relinquish responsibility for maintaining large parts of the education system.

    THE UNIVERSITY OF ESWATINI 2021 PROSPECTUS FOR UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMMES Admissions Office University of Eswatini February 2021 Thank you for your enquiry about the University of Eswatini. The aim of the booklet is to provide information about: The University and services it offers. The Undergraduate Study Programmes The Admission Requirements The Application Procedure Please note that the information contained in this booklet was correct at the time of going to print but may be changed without notice. Please address correspondence to: The Registrar Attention: Admissions Office University of Eswatini Private Bag 4 KWALUSENI M201 Or Email us at [email protected] 1 BACKGROUND INFORMATION Historical Note The University Of Eswatini (UNESWA) developed from the University of Botswana, Lesotho and Eswatini (UBLS), formerly known as the University of Basutoland, Bechuanaland and Swaziland (UBBS), which had its headquarters in Lesotho between 1964 and 1975. The UBBS had developed from the Pius XII Catholic University College at Roma – so our history has quite deep roots. UNESWA achieved its independent status as a fully-fledged University in 1982. Since achieving university status, UNESWA has continued to grow and to develop in accordance with its stated aim of assisting national development. Student enrolment in accordance has risen steadily, paralleled by an ever-increasing output of graduates since the University’s first Congregation for the conferment of Degrees in 1982. In all 20545 degrees have been conferred, 1156 of them at the 2019 Graduation. The chief mandate, which the university has tried to implement, is human resource production. This is clearly indicated in the type of programmes selected at the beginning, which still constitute a major part of UNESWA programmes.

  • The Phd Journey at Addis Ababa University
    Volume 16, 2021 THE PHD JOURNEY AT ADDIS ABABA UNIVERSITY: STUDY DELAYS, CAUSES, AND COPING MECHANISMS Getnet Tizazu Fetene* Addis Ababa University, Addis Ababa, [email protected] Ethiopia Wondwosen Tamrat St. Mary’s University, Addis Ababa, wondwosen- Ethiopia [email protected] * Corresponding author ABSTRACT Aim/Purpose This study was conducted to examine the rate of delay, explanatory causes, and coping strategies of PhD candidates at Addis Ababa University, Ethiopia’s premier university, over the last ten years. Background Delayed graduation is a common theme in doctoral education around the world. It continues to draw the concern of governments, universities, and the candi- dates themselves, calling for different forms of intervention. Addressing these challenges is key to resolving the many obstacles into doctoral education. Methodology Ten-year archival data consisting of 1,711 PhD students and in-depth inter- views with ten PhD candidates were used as data-generation tools. The data col- lection focused on progression patterns, reasons for study delays, and the cop- ing mechanisms used by doctoral students when they face challenges. While the candidates were interviewed to narrate their lived experience pertinent to the objectives of the study, the archival data regarding the PhD students were col- lected from the Registrar Office of the University under study. Contribution Amid an ongoing global debate about best practices in doctoral education, the research on study delays contributes not only to filling the existing empirical gap in the area but also in identifying factors, for example, related to financial mat- ters, family commitment, and student-supervisor rapport, that help address the challenges faced and improving the provision of doctoral education.

The climate of uncertainty that pervaded much of the world — coupled with the slow pace of recovery — nonetheless revealed new opportunities for IESE. With an entrepreneurial mindset, IESE aligned its portfolio of executive programs to current economic realities. Our program offerings responded to the wide-ranging questions of alumni and friends about how best to meet current challenges and prepare for the future. New and ongoing programs offered new perspectives, practical strategies, and encouraging support. The overall upswing in participation we saw this year refl ected, we believe, a global awareness of the need for new paradigms. Our response was to encourage business leaders to step back, take a fresh look, innovate and move forward with strength of purpose and optimism. At IESE, we have never been more acutely aware of the role companies play in fueling economic and social progress. We see it as our global social responsibility to develop business leaders with integrity and service orientation: leaders who hold themselves accountable, who value their people, and who recognize that personal and organizational development feed societal growth. As we continue to seize new opportunities for a better future, we are gratifi ed by the dedication of our superlative faculty, administrators, and staff.

  • Challenges of Kwara State University Malete, Nigeria Towards the Attainment of a World-Class University Status
    Asian Education Studies; Vol. 3, No. 4; 2018 ISSN 2424-8487 E-ISSN 2424-9033 Published by July Press Challenges of Kwara State University Malete, Nigeria Towards the Attainment of a World-Class University Status T. A. Umoru1 & J. S. Mamman1 1 Department of Business & Entrepreneurship Education, Kwara State University, Malete, Nigeria Correspondence: T. A. Umoru, Department of Business & Entrepreneurship Education, Kwara State University, Malete, Nigeria. Received: September 2, 2018 Accepted: September 18, 2018 Online Published: September 28, 2018 doi:10.20849/aes.v3i4.478 URL: https://doi.org/10.20849/aes.v3i4.478 Abstract The study examined the challenges of the realisation of a world-class university at Kwara State University, Malete, Nigeria. Two research questions and two null hypotheses were formulated for the study. Descriptive survey research design was adopted for the study. The population of the study was 1,078 lecturers out of which 245 lecturers were sampled. Challenges of the Realization of World-class University Questionnaire (CRSWUQ) constructed by the researchers were used for data collection for the study. Percentage was used to answer the research questions while Mann Whitney U-test was used to test the hypotheses at 0.05 level of significance. The findings revealed among others that: world class status of a university is simply about the international recognition of the university. A world class university has world class departments, diversified sources of income, sound financial base and always benchmarked with top universities world-wide. Lack of physical infrastructure which is obviously the most visible part of the university, the pressure of publish or perish culture which undermines the quality of research and absence of public financial support are some of the challenges that could hinder the world-class status of Kwara State University.

  • A Report on the Mapping Study of Peace & Security Engagement In
    A Report on the Mapping Study of Peace & Security Engagement in African Tertiary Institutions Written by Funmi E. Vogt This project was funded through the support of the Carnegie Corporation About the African Leadership Centre In July 2008, King’s College London through the Conflict, Security and Development group (CSDG), established the African Leadership Centre (ALC). In June 2010, the ALC was officially launched in Nairobi, Kenya, as a joint initiative of King’s College London and the University of Nairobi. The ALC aims to build the next generation of scholars and analysts on peace, security and development. The idea of an African Leadership Centre was conceived to generate innovative ways to address some of the challenges faced on the African continent, by a new generation of “home‐grown” talent.
