Why some universities do not offer every course
Course availability at Nigerian universities depends on the institution's founding charter, NUC accreditation and the specific faculties the university has built up. A specialised institution may run a narrow but deep catalogue, while a comprehensive university covers more ground in less depth.
The National Universities Commission accredits each programme separately, and the absence of a course in an institution's catalogue usually reflects either the institution's strategic focus or the fact that the NUC has not yet approved that specific programme for the institution. KSU's current catalogue is shaped by the institution's strategic focus and the programmes the NUC has accredited so far which is why Industrial Relations and Personnel Management sits outside the KSU undergraduate offer.
