The University of Ibadan was established in 1948 as Nigeria’s first university. Originally founded as a college of the University of London, it became an independent institution in 1962 and has since shaped generations of scholars, researchers, professionals, and leaders across Africa and beyond.
Today, the university serves more than 50,000 students across 17 faculties and 140 academic departments. It remains one of Africa’s most respected institutions for research, teaching, and postgraduate education.
A University of Ibadan degree has always carried meaning. UI eCampus extends that legacy to qualified students who are ready to advance their education but cannot put their careers, families, or locations on hold to study on campus.
