The National Universities Commission (NUC) has approved 34 undergraduate programmes for the newly established Federal University of Science and Technology (FUSTECH), Epe, Lagos State.
CDA News Nigeria gathered that the approval was conveyed in a letter dated October 23, 2026, and signed on behalf of the NUC Executive Secretary, Prof. Abdullahi Ribadu. The approval followed a resource verification exercise by panels of experts to assess the university’s human and material resources.
The programmes will be offered on a full-time basis starting from the 2026/2027 academic session. The NUC approved an admission quota of 50 students per programme, bringing the total approved quota to 1,700 students.
The approved courses span five faculties: Computing and Informatics; Engineering; Allied Health Sciences; Management Sciences and Technology; and Science.
Currently, FUSTECH operates by sharing facilities with the Lagos State University (LASU) Epe campus on an interim basis. Following the approval, the Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Kazeem Oshikoya, expressed the university’s readiness to begin its inaugural admission process.
