The management of James Hope University has expressed confidence in securing accreditation from the National Universities Commission for three new postgraduate programmes.
Vice-Chancellor of the university, Prof. Olu Akinkugbe, spoke while receiving an NUC accreditation team at the varsity’s campus at Lekki, Lagos, on Monday.
The university is seeking accreditation for FinTech and Analytics; Innovation, Intrapreneurship and Entrepreneurship; and Economic Development and Policy Analysis.
Speaking, the varsity VC said the programmes for which accreditation was sought were part of efforts to bridge skills gaps in Nigeria’s education sector.
He said the institution was positioning itself as a skills-driven postgraduate university focused on innovation, entrepreneurship, artificial intelligence and digital transformation.
