Please help me out here. What are the factors used to determine the First Generation Universities. Looking at the Universities listed I was just wondering how Uniben made the list considering when the rest of the Universities were established.
 
Regards,
 
KKD

Well, the following table will help you out.  Although some may quibble, but based on the range of the years of establishment (including of precursor institution leading to university) or take-over by Federal Government, of the 40 Federal Universities currently in Nigeria, there are 6 First-Generation (established 1948-1970), 7 Second-Generation (established 1975), 14 Third Generation (established 1980-2007) and 13 Fourth-Generation  (established 2011 to 2013) institutions.

And there you have it.

Terrible story

Thanks VC Bolaji! I was able to access this; and I brushed through the report on the 6 First Generation Universities [UI, UNN, ABU, UNIBEN, UNILAG, & OAU/UNIFE].

The functional word is "deplorable" to be generous! These are the relevant questions at this point:

1. How did we get here? Is there any reason to wonder why Nigerian universities are increasingly unrecognized in the international academic/scholarship society and why they are rated abysmally low on the world stage of academia?

2. Was this deliberate in an educated society like Nigeria?

3. Was it sheer ignorance because we didnt know how to maintain or sustain a univerisity? Or was this decay one of the inevitable results of the general national dilemas associated with poor infrastructures?

4. Can the VCs who presided over these decays be assembled and asked serious questions?

5. Where was NUC and other regulatory and QC organs of the tertiary education system in Nigeria when these decays were formenting and exacerbating? Are the present leaderships of these regulatory agencies aware of this gravity of decay? Are they involved in this needs assessment and report? JUI will certainly ask some these questions during the next visit to NUC!

6. Where do we go from here? What does it take to realistically reverse the calamity and prevent its reoccurence especially at the new univerities?

 

Finally, it is obvious that this condition of decay in Nigerian universities will not support any meaning academic research and scholarship in the nation; so the low international rating of Nigerian univerities is not an undounded discriminatory practice by foreign rating agencies; besides, since nations now compete on the basis of innovations in a knowledge-based global village, Nigerian competetitiveness in anything worthwhile [apart from serving as a raw material site for crude oil and other natural resources] is obviously uncertain. And it is a pity considering the massive human potential in that in that country! Take care. JU Igietseme
