Learning Model
The Distance Learning Programme use a multimedia technology that supports electronic instructional delivery mode (e-learning), as well as independent learning or correspondence. The technology permits the transmission and reception of lectures and instructional packages in form of text, graphics, audio and video formats and viewed online by students in classroom settings at remote receive centers. With easy-to-use internet access software (such as Knowledge Environment for Web-based Learning-KEWL, Modular Object-Oriented Dynamic Learning Environment MOODLE), students can retrieve lectures and assignment and during the class student have the oppurtunity for real time interaction beteen students and distant instructors using a combination of email, computer conferencing and chat. There are occational visit of instructors to the receive centers for personalised attention, tutorials and conduct of examinations.
The Distance Learning is programme-paced and a compromise between learning autonomy and rigid direction by the intructors with set dates when a course begins and ends, including a number of fixed date events within each course e.g fixed dates for the events such as, assignment submission, face-to-face tutorial sessions, the start and end of on-line conferences, telephone tutorial and examinations. Student attendance requiremets are also built into distance learning courses e.g workshops, practical sessions, seminars, tutorials, project or thesis and examinations.
The total time to complete a distance education course is equivalent to that of an on-campus programme.
Our Competence
In establishing OAU Distance Learning, we have drawn on the historical strength in curriculum development and competent academic staff for the moderation of courses, and we also possess unparralleled experience i the area of information networking technology. Following the establishment of the University's Information Technology and Communication Unit(INTECU) in 1996, we have been running a satellite receive terminal facility that supports the cmpus-wide network, OAUNET, which extends internet connectivity to locations throughout the extensive campus.
Today, the University currently has the largest campus-wide network in Nigeria, which services over 23,000 students and 5,000 staff members. The Unit is presently equipped with mininum access of web at 1 Mgps/1.5 Mgps up satelite linkage and local area network within the campus and study centers. Center for Distane Learning possesses a core of hihly qualified technical personnel in the different aspects of Computer and Communication Engineering and available infrastructure, Collaborative environment, and rich content linked to educational goals.
The University has alos put in place quality control mechanisms that will ensure the standard of the programmes and sustain the quality of university education as prescribed National Universities Commission (NUC), the Nigerian education regulatory agency.

About Work-Integrated Learning Programmes
Introduction
Over the past three decades, the educational activities of the Institute have extended beyond the campus. This has been principally due to institutionalized linkages established by the Institute with various industries, R&D organizations, developmental agencies, etc. This activity for all the on-campus programmes is through the Practice School which as an integral component of the academic curriculum takes the classroom for a specified period to a professional location where the students and the faculty along with the industry experts get involved in real-life problems.
Since 1979, the Institute has been participating in the human resources development activities of the industries by evolving several degree programmes by integrating the working environment of the employees with the learning environment required by the Institute. These programmes were first started as M.E. (Collaborative) programmes in 1979. Later, from 1988, the work integrated learning philosophy has been extended to programmes like First Level Diploma in Computer Applications, Instrument Servicing & Maintenance, Workshop Technology, Nautical Sciences; M.V.S in Computer Operations & Applications, Information Management, Physician Assistant, Footwear Technology; B.S. in Technological Operations, Pharmacy Operations, Industrial Management, Process Engineering, Engineering & Industrial Technology, Optometry, Physician Assistant, Power Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Marine Engineering, Nautical Technology, Engineering Technology, Information Systems, Ophthalmic Assistant, Industrial Engineering & Technology, Nautical Sciences; M.Sc. (Tech.) Pharmaceutical Chemistry; M.S. in Systems & Information, Computer Science, Electronics & Control, Pharmacy Operations, Technological Operations, Life Sciences, Biomedical Sciences, Design Engineering, Habitat Technology, Chemical Technology, Consciousness Studies, Consultancy Management, Engineering Management, Industrial Production & Management, Management Systems, Medical Laboratory Technology, Microelectronics, Quality Management, Software Engineering, Software Systems, Manufacturing Management, e-Business, Pharmaceutical Operations and Management, Telecommunication & Software Engineering; Mechanical Systems Design, Embedded Systems, M.Phil. in Mathematics, Physics, Science Communication & Journalism, Astronomy & Planetarium Sciences, Cardiac Sciences, Hospital & Health Systems Management, Optometry, Physician Assistant and Off-campus Ph.D.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Description of Programmes
The Institute conducts off-campus degree programmes as a means of continuing education for employed professionals as part of the human resource development programmes of specific organizations at various off-campus centres. The Institute's Senate has authorized the Institute to run the off-campus degree programmes in every degree in which an on-campus degree programme is already run in the Institute. For the conduct of all these programmes, the basic requirement is the participation of the collaborative organization by extending physical and other facilities and by agreeing to integrate their work requirements with the academic requirements of the Institute for the pursuit of the degree programme. The Work-Integrated Learning Programmes Division operates all these programmes. In all these programmes, emphasis is on self-learning and the pedagogy attempts to incorporate as many modern technologies as desirable. While every one of these programmes requires collaboration of an organization, some programmes have a highly structured collaboration with planned classroom activities and some programmes may have less structured planning. While a number of degrees are offered through structured collaboration with many collaborating organizations, there are also degrees, which are available in an open manner as Work-Integrated Learning Programmes for a large number of organizations, each of which may sponsor only few students. For the sake of identification, the structured collaborative programmes are classified as collaborative programmes and other programmes as Work-Integrated learning programmes. It is possible that if any organization sponsors a large number of students regularly and provides facilities for a structured arrangement, then any of the programmes that are currently classified as Work-Integrated learning programmes can also be classified as collaborative programmes or it is also possible that some programmes appear in both classifications as of the current option. For all these programmes, faculty/resource persons are drawn from the Institute, the participating organizations as well as experts from other Institutions.
Invitation for New Collaborations
The Institute looks for a viable number (around 50) of candidates sponsored by an organization or a group of organizations for a degree programme. Any organization interested in having a dialogue with the Institute for offering any collaborative and innovative programme directed towards the human resource development needs of their industry may write to the Institute. The Institute has an open mind to offer any of the existing programmes or devise any other new programme for their benefit. For further details contact

Career Success Certificate Program
Why a certificate program?
We often receive questions from students asking how they can “guarantee” themselves success after graduation or what exactly should they be doing at that point in their college career to ensure success. Although this program is NOT a guarantee or a specific endorsement of any one student over another, it is as close to a direct route towards career success as you can get. Why? It is a prescribed recommendation for each student on which services, programs, and events, offered by the University Career Center (and across campus) can help them through specific stages in their career planning. The program is effective for all majors and class levels. It also helps dispel the myth that career planning is something to do senior year. There is a lot of preparation, goal-setting, and experience that comes before graduation and this program will help you get there step-by-step.
What are the benefits?
We call this program the Career Success Certificate program, because we strongly feel by following this prescribed course of career development, you will significantly increase your chances of career success as you transition from college to career. Tangible benefits to participants include an official program certificate to be awrded at the completion of the program and the opportunity to list the awarded certificate on our resume for future employers or graduate/professional schools to see. Additionally, we will be spotlighting certificate program “graduates” on our student success story pages and hopefully using your stories to inspire future students.
