Lagos State University (LASU) is a state-owned university established by the Lagos State government in 1983. Its main campus is situated at Ojo, with sub-campuses at Ikeja and Epe. The university was set up "for the advancement of learning and establishment of academic excellence".[5][6][7] The university caters to over 35,000 students.[8] The university was established during the administration of Lateef Kayode Jakande.[9][10][11] The university offers diploma, degree and post graduate programmes, including an MBA programme. LASU was ranked among the top 600 universities in the world by the Times Higher Education World University Rankings for 2020. On 23 June 2021, LASU emerged as the best young university in Nigeria having been below the age of 50 years to be added.[12] Times Higher Education ranked the Lagos State University as the second best university in Nigeria on 2 September 2020,[13] and was the only state university included in the rankings for 2022.[14] The university has attracted international funding, including for the establishment of a World Bank Group Africa Centre for Excellence on Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics.[15][16]

## History

[edit]

The university was initially conceived as a multi-campus, non-residential university. It operates a multi-campus system with four fully owned campuses having its main campus at Ojo (along the Badagry Expressway) and other campuses at Epe (where the Faculties of Engineering and the Faculty of Agriculture are located), Ikeja (where the College of Medicine is located).[17][18]

A 300-seat theatre hall is under construction at the school's main campus in Ojo by the Awori Welfare Association of Nigeria (AWAN).[19] The project site is opposite the Babatunde Raji Fashola Senate House.[20] It is flanked by a new library building, which is still under construction, and the existing student affairs building. When finished, the building will serve as a lecture hall for students with offices and secretariat.[21]

The university began with three faculties: Commerce and Business Administration, Law and Medicine. The Faculty of Commerce and Business Administration was changed to the Faculty of Business and Social Studies at its first meeting the board. The faculties of arts, education, engineering, social sciences, management sciences, science, communication and media studies, and the School of Transport were added later.[22]

## Epe campus

[edit]

The Epe campus is located on the north side of the Lekki Lagoon and houses the Faculty of Engineering, School of Agriculture, Faculty of Environmental Sciences, School of Pre-degree Studies, and diploma programs.[23][24] The Epe campus is fully residential, and was developed because the Ojo campus could not accommodate the Faculty of Engineering as population became larger.[25] The campus was converted from military barracks that were released by the persuasion of the then military governor in the regime of Olusegun Obasanjo.[26] The campus is home for the school's pre-degree studies and diploma programs, and is the largest property belonging to the school, larger than the main campus.[27]

The Epe campus has an information commons that could be referred to as the library. The modern building was built and commissioned in the later part of 2008 by the then Chairman of the Governing Council, Mr Kekere-Ekun (OFR). It has a sitting capacity of 400 in its reading area with seating for 100 in the free wifi-connected e-library section.[28] The Epe library offers information services to the students and staff of the university and works in collaboration with the faculty to deliver best teaching, learning and research experience that is comparable to other higher learning institutions in the country. The library's administrative head on the campus is known as the head of library, who takes directives from the university librarian at the main campus in Ojo.

Six departments of the Faculty of Engineering are based at the Epe campus: mechanical engineering, electronics and computer engineering, chemical engineering, aeronautical and astronautical engineering, civil engineering, and industrial and system engineering, which was added in 2021.

The Epe campus is being governed by a head of campus (H.O.C.) who has a similar role to a vice-chancellor, and supervises academic and non-academic activities on the campus. The School of Agriculture has its dean and the Faculty of Engineering. The school is generally administered by the vice-chancellor who has his seat at the main campus, Ojo. The campus produces a candidate for the post of vice president, welfare director, and assistant general secretary in its student union government representing the university campus at the main campus; Ojo. The current head of campus for the Epe campus is Professor R.O. Okuneye who started his tenure in the year 2021. The campus also runs postgraduate programs across the three old engineering departments namely:Mmechanical engineering, electronics and computer engineering, chemical engineering. For an academically conducive environment, the campus does not rely on the public power grid but owns an alternative power source. The campus generator is powered for both the student's hostels, lecture rooms, and staff quarters. A few years back, the Army arrived[29] and now occupy some parts of the university structures.
