In continuation of the accreditation procedures currently ongoing for programmes and courses at Phoenix University Agwada, the management of the university has received the NUC team for the Forensic Science programme.
The team, led by Professor Adamma Emejulu, alongside other members of the NUC accreditation panel, including Prof. Nuradeen Abdullahi and Daniel Ucha, NUC Rep., were welcomed by the Deputy Vice Chancellor (DVC), Professor Mohammed Alhaji Adamu, on behalf of the Vice Chancellor, who was unavoidably absent. Other members of the management team who received the visitors were the Deputy Registrar and Librarian, as well as the Dean and staff of the Faculty of Natural and Applied Sciences.
While presenting the reasons for their visit, the team leader informed that they were sent to the university to ensure that there were proper facilities to train students to be global players in the field of forensic science. She informed that they were not sent to criticise but to offer constructive opinions about how to maintain standards.
Welcoming the NUC accreditation team, the DVC commended them for taking the time to travel all the way to Agwada and implored them to work diligently towards ensuring that proper standards were kept. He promised that the university was fully prepared to give the team full cooperation in their work and was willing to give any explanations for any noticeable grey areas.
After the welcoming ceremony, the team proceeded to the library and from there to the department and laboratories, where they interacted with both staff and students.
