FEDERAL UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY, MINNA [FUTMINNA] OBTAINS NUC APPROVAL FOR SEVEN (7) NEW ACADEMIC PROGRAMS

The Vice Chancellor is invited to recall that a resource verification visit was carried out by groups of experts to some academic programmes offered at the Federal University of Technology, Minna, Niger State, with a view to assessing the human and material resources available for their establishment.

I am directed to inform the Vice Chancellor that the Acting Executive Secretary has considered and approved the full-time mode of the following programmes to be run in the main carapus of the university with effect from the 2024/2025 academic session.

1. B. Tech. Industrial Mathematics

2. B.Tech. Software Engineering

3. B.Tech. Meteorology

4. B.Tech. Data Science

5. B.Tech. Forensic Sciences

6. B.Tech. Public Health

7. B.Tech. Forestry and Wildlife Technology

I would like to clarify that the approval does not cover the part-time delivery mode of undergraduate programs. Before the part-time delivery mode of the program can begin, an application must be forwarded to the Commission for further processing.

The programs will bear only the approved title and nomenclature and any changes will require the approval of the Commission. The University is required to provide adequate human and material resources for the development and growth of the approved programs.

Please accept the distinguished greetings of the Acting Executive Secretary.

Abubakar M. Girei

Interim Director of Academic Planning
