Only PhD Holders Are Qualified To Be A Lecturer In Nigerian Universities – NUC
The Executive Secretary, National Universities Commission (NUC),
Professor Julius Okojie, has on Friday divulged that the minimum
qualification to be engaged as lecturers in Nigerian universities is
doctorate degree and must be observed by all universities in the
country.
According to Nigeria University Scholarship, this disclosure was made
known in Abuja, when he received a delegation of the Study Group 5 of
Senior Executive
Course 37 of the National Institute for Policy and
Strategic Studies (NIPSS), Kuru, Jos, Plateau State, led by Professor
Celestine Bassey, on study tour of strategic institutions.
He contested a comment by one of the delegates that some universities
recruit those with master’s degrees and in some cases, first degrees, a
situation the NIPSS participant said was responsible for poor quality
graduates churned out by universities.
Okojie explained that the Federal Government, through Tertiary
Education Trust Fund (TETFund), had embarked on aggressive training of
lecturers, both locally and overseas, towards ensuring that the problem
of shortage of qualified lecturers in the university system is
addressed.
