Osun State University : UNIOSUN

Osun State University was established through the Osun State University Establishment Law passed in December 2006 and signed by the state government. The National Universities Commission approved and formally recognised the institution on 21 December 2006, describing it as Nigeria’s 80th university and the 30th state university. Unlike a university created around one campus, UNIOSUN took off with seven colleges operating across different locations at the same time. That multi-campus design was intended to spread university education, connect academic work with the needs of different parts of Osun State and widen access for students. The simultaneous start of the colleges is one of the defining features of the institution’s early history. UNIOSUN has since developed as a public, multi-campus university with responsibilities in teaching, research, professional preparation and community service. Its founding story reflects the rapid growth of state universities in Nigeria during the 2000s and the use of distributed campuses to support regional development.
