ABOUT THE DEPARTMENT

Business Administration Department started its journey as a programme under the Department of Accountancy, Business Administration and Entrepreneurship in 2012/2013 academic session, in the then Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, Federal University Ndufu-Alike Ikwo (FUNAI). With the creation of Faculty of Management and Social Sciences (FMSS) in 2016, Business Administration programme was carved out from Faculty of Humanities and hosted as  3-in-1  programme in the department of Accountancy, Business Administration and Banking/Finance in the  FMSS. On 1^st September, 2019, Business Administration Programme became a fully fledged Department in the Faculty of Management and Social Sciences with Dr. Isaac Monday Ikpor as the pioneer Head of the Department. The Department offers a four-year degree programme, leading to the award of Bachelor of Science (B.Sc) degree in Business Administration. Our postgraduate programme enables students to specialize in the core area of management. The Business Administration course is designed to offer students a broad – based theoretical and practical knowledge in Business Management and Entrepreneurship that will enable them take up top management positions in both government and public sector organizations.
