Now!The Oyo State College of Nursing Sciences, Eleyele, Ibadan, has inaugurated four new faculties designed to meet the growing demand for nursing education and actualise the collegiate status of the institution.
The inauguration marked a significant step in nursing education at the institution, elevating the former Departments of Nursing, Midwifery, and Public Health within the College to standalone faculties: Medical Surgical, Maternal and Child Health, Public Health and Community Care, and Psychiatric and Mental Health.
The Provost of the College, Dr. Gbonjubola Owolabi, said this elevation recognises the college’s long-standing contributions to nursing education and the growing demand for its programs.
She asserted that the new framework in the college marks a significant milestone for the institution and the nursing profession in Nigeria.
Owolabi, therefore, urged the new deans of faculties to work assiduously towards the attainment of world-class products from the college.
She appreciated the Heads of Departments, who are now Deans of the faculty, for their effectiveness and commitment to the college’s progress.
While commending the Governor Seyi Makinde-led administration, the provost said the institution had initiated steps to commence degree programmes in collaboration with the Ladoke Akintola University of Technology, Ogbomosho.
She challenged the deans of faculties to foster nursing education, emphasising that the various courses offered must serve as a tool for advancing the healthcare profession.
She added, “This development is expected to foster growth and expansion of the nursing program in the College, benefiting both the college and the broader healthcare sector in Nigeria and globally.”
The Pro-Chancellor, LAUTECH, Prof. Ayodeji Omole, in his keynote address, described the inauguration as a historic and groundbreaking development.
He praised the Oyo State College of Nursing’s bold step to infuse new faculties and departments into its academic system.
He explained that the College’s bold restructuring filled a long-standing gap in Nigeria’s nursing education, particularly among Colleges of Nursing in the country.
“With this inauguration of new faculties, the College will witness a turning point in nursing education and practice,” he said.BREAKING NEWS: Did You Miss The 400 $ex T4pe of Equatorial Guinea senior official Baltasar Ebang Engonga?
