FORWARD KWASU has grown in experience and achievement since the inauguration and implementation of the maiden edition of its strategic plan (2010 2015). The achieved almost 92% in the implementation of the first strategic plan. These were in terms of infrastructural development, teaching, learning research and community development.since its inception, the has turned out great number of graduates in various fields of human endeavour. The success factor is attributable to thecommitment of the founding fathers, the Kwara State Government, Local Governments, the commitment of the Vice-Chancellor, management and staff of the, excellent town and gown relationship and prevailing peaceand tranquility that pervaded in the during the plan period. The current plan is being articulated to sustain the tempo of achievement recorded in the last plan with a view tomaking KWASU a truly world class.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY KWASU began its academic operation in October 2010 with a total number of 550 students. The stated with five (5) Colleges as follows: 1) College of Humanities, and Social Sciences 2) College Pure and Applied Sciences 3) College of Information and Communication Technology 4) College of Education 5) College of Agriculture and Veterinary Medicine Subsequently, College of Engineering and Technology was established. Today, the total population number of students stands at 9186 with six (6) Colleges and forty (40) Departments. The has graduated 4 sets of graduands. In terms of meeting the requests of the regulatory authority as per Benchmark Minimum Academic Standard (BMAS) and accreditation requirements, the as of today has 54 accredited programmes at undergraduate level and 43 programmes at postgraduate level. Even though, the last plan achieved almost 92% of projections, it is my hope that this plan will achieve 100% at the end of the plan period. To ensure this feat, the Strategic Planning Implementation Office in collaboration with Strategic Planning Monitoring Committee will evaluate programmes both quantitatively and qualitatively for management intervention to achieve academic excellence and greater service to the community. The strategic planning committee has worked tirelessly to outline the strategic goals and objectives which will be the focus of our activities in the next five years. 3

KWASU 2014- builds on the success if the previous plan (2010-2014) and advances the institution as among the nation s leading public universities: preeminent in research, excellent in teaching and committed to the community. The plan offers a thorough and frank assessment of KWASU current position, offers a bold yet actionable and achievable strategy for achieving excellence that reflects input from staff, students, alumni, community participation and other stakeholders. Written far KWASU, the plan is designed to build on the s historic and current strength while developing new areas and programmes that will take KWASU to greater heights. The strategic plan sets nine strategic priorities which constituted the goals for the next five years to improve KWASU Performance. These are: Academic excellence Infrastructure development Research excellence Excellent gown and town relationship Robert Internally Generated Revenue Internalisation Sound Financial Staff and Student Welfare High quality graduates KWASU s strategic plan includes a framework of assessment of tools and metrics that will evaluate progress qualitatively and quantitatively. Employing measurements that emphasise transparency ease of use and accessibility. KWASU s academic and administrative leadership, Governing Council and will set specific targets and completion dates and will assign accountability for improvement in each area of the plan. 4

The will ensure effective implementation of this plan to ensure that the goals and their corresponding objectives and strategies enhance its march towards meeting the mission, vision and core values. 5

CHAPTER OE ITRODUCTIO Historical Development of KWASU The journey towards establishing a State in Kwara State began when attempts were made after 10 years of establishment of Kwara State College of Technology to transform it into a. In 1982 attempts were made to establish a fresh but the agreement with the Technical Partner Metripex failed. In 1983, further effort was aborted by the sudden change of government. In ovember 1990, the then Military Governor of Kwara State Colonel Alwali Jauji Kazir, inaugurated a 15-man Committee under the former Vice-Chancellor of the of Ilorin, the late Professor Samuel Afolabi Toye, to work out logistics for the establishment of the Institution. The plan however, did not go beyond the drawing board. Also, in 2002, the then Governor of Kwara State, the late Alhaji Mohammed Alabi Lawal, took further step by setting up Professor Saka uhu Committee with the mandate to convert the present Kwara State Polytechnic to a. The turning of the sod was undertaken by former President Olusegun Obasanjo, but Governor Lawal s administration failed to go beyond that step till the expiration of his tenure in May 2003. History was however made on July 11, 2007 barely two months into the commencement of his second term in office, when Governor Bukola Saraki inaugurated a Technical Committee under the former Governor of Kwara State, Alhaji Mohammed Sha aba Lafiagi, to prepare grounds for the establishment of the Kwara State. When that Committee completed its assignment in December, 2007, an Implementation Committee under the former Vice-Chancellor of the of Ilorin, Prof. Shuaibu Oba AbdulRaheem, was constituted on January 15, 2008 to draw up the curriculum and prepare the masterplan for the. The government subsequently sent a bill on the proposed Kwara State to the State House of Assembly which was passed after series of deliberations. The Bill of the Kwara State 6

was therefore signed into law on December 24, 2008. The Governor alongside members of the Implementation Committee obtained the certificate and instrument to operate the on February 9, 2009 from the ational Universities Commission (UC). Thus, Kwara State became the 34 th State and 95 th in igeria. The implementation Committee was converted to the Interim Governing Council by Governor Abubakar Bukola Saraki on April 14, 2009 to conduct the exercise for the recruitment of Principal Officers for the. The pioneer Vice-Chancellor, Professor AbdulRasheed a Allah, who until his appointment was chair of the African American Studies Department of the Western Illinois, Macomb, United Stated of America, assumed office on Monday, July 27, 2009. On Monday, august 10, 2009, the Government of Kwara State went a step further to concretize the foundation it had laid for the by inaugurating a substantive Governing Council for the under former Governor Mohammed Sha aba Lafiagi CO, who had been involved in the conception and evolution of the Universtiy. Other members of the Governing Council are Professor Halidu I. Abubakar, Alhaji Shehu AbdulGafar OO, Chief (mrs.) Wosilat T. Macarthy, Mr. Adetunji Fagbemi, Alhaji Mudashiru Oladapo, Alhaji Toyin Sanusi, Dr. Ali Ahmad and Alhaji Abiodun Olayiwola, former Secretary of the Interim Council, who was appointed as the Acting Registrar and Acting Secretary to the Governing Council. Two more Principal Officers were appointed. They were the Bursar, Mallam Mohammed dache and the Librarian, Mallam Isiaka Atunde Alao, who assumed duty immediately. 7

Recruitment of Staff In tune with its decisions to attract only high quality manpower for the institution, on September 5, 2009 applicants for non-teaching positions in the wrote written examinations while between September 16 and 27, 2009 the instituted public presentation for candidates who applied for teaching appointments. Candidates who applied for the position of Professor and Associate Professor; Senior Lecturer; Lecturer 1 & II as well as Assistant Lecturer presented lectures in their areas of specialisation before a cream of academics drawn mainly from the of Ilorin, Obafemi Awolowo, Ile-Ife and al-hikimah, Ilorin.
