Statistics

The Provost stated that the students are admitted to pursue both Education and Business-related programmes by distance mode for 2019/2020 academic year.

He added that out of the total number of 13,089 fresh students, 11,908 are to pursue undergraduate programmes while 1,181 are to pursue post-graduate programmes.

The number of undergraduates offering education programmes is 8,921 and those offering business programmes is 2,988. For post-graduate studies, 402 are offering education programmes while 779 are offering business programmes.

The 2019/2020 academic year’s enrollment figure also comprises 6,566 males (5,934 undergraduates and 632 post-graduates) and 6,523 females (5,974 undergraduates and 549 post-graduates).

Prof Galyuon further acknowledged that there is improvement in female enrollment in the College, “Comparing the admission statistics for this year to last year’s statistics, the percentage of female undergraduates has gone up significantly from 48.3% in 2018/2019 to 50.2% in 2019/2020. This shows a remarkable increase of 1.99% of female population over last year’s increase of 1.5%”.

Restructuring of the College

The College has undergone restructuring by introducing new programmes in Junior High Education, Primary Education, and Early Childhood Education.

Prof Galyuon indicated that the restructuring is to ensure that the College operates in an efficient and effective manner to achieve quality distance education.

He however advice the matriculants to take their studies serious, “Your primary objective of coming to the university is to study hard towards the attainment of your degree or diploma. Even though you will not stay on campus during your period of study, do not forget that you are on an academic journey.

The university expects to offer quality services to your families, society and the country at large. I therefore advise that you make good use of the resources at your disposal, respect authorities and your colleagues, establish good study habits and read ahead of your tutorials”.
