The Vice Chancellor, Professor Mohammed Khalid Othman, announced the result during the university’s 139th Regular Senate Meeting on Tuesday, 5 May 2026. He said NUC assessed 30 programmes across the university’s faculties, with 19 programmes gaining full accreditation and 11 programmes receiving interim accreditation status.
