ASUU rejects curriculum designed by NUC
The Academic Staff Union of Universities has rejected the Core Curriculum Minimum Academic Standards prepared by the National Universities Commission.
The union said it was a threat to quality university education, and an erosion of powers of the university Senate in Nigerian universities.
A statement signed by the national president of ASUU, Emmanuel Osodeke, today, explained that it was inexplicable that NUC pre-packaged 70 percent contents were being imposed on the Nigerian University System.
Osodeke added that university Senates, who are statutorily responsible for academic programme development, were left to work on only 30 percent.
He stressed that there were growing concerns about the numerous shortcomings and gross inadequacies of the Core Curriculum Minimum Academic Standards documents.
