    Preamble 

    The School of Postgraduate Studies 

    As part of its Vision and Mission of providing sound scientific, technological and professional training, identifying technological needs and problems, solving them within the context of community and national needs and sustainable development for the country, the Governing Council of Olusegun Agagu University of Science and Technology (OAUSTECH), Okitipupa in 2019 approved the establishment of the School of Postgraduate Studies which eventually took off in 2021 after the National Universities Commission's (NUC) approval.

    In pursuance of the primary objectives of the Ondo State Government for the establishment of the university of science and technology, the postgraduate programmes of Olusegun Agagu University of Science and Technology (OAUSTECH), Okitipupa are intended to consolidate and build upon the solid intellectual and technological foundations which the undergraduate courses in the University have been most carefully designed to lay.

    The need for a purposeful and functional education that fosters technology for self-reliance as an antidote to under-development is the underlying principle for designing the specific postgraduate programmes in the various Schools of the University. The mission of the School of Postgraduate Studies includes providing sound scientific, technological and professional training, identifying technological needs and problems, solving them within the context of community and national needs and sustainable development leading to the award of postgraduate diplomas and higher degrees which emphasize planning, adaptive and productive skills in scientific, agricultural, and allied professional disciplines.

    Within the context of these general objectives, therefore, graduate students of Olusegun Agagu University of Science and Technology, Okitipupa are trained to: 

    1. have a very sound and an in-depth knowledge of the basic principles underlying the body of knowledge they are being trained to master;
    2. develop a broad analytical mind that would enhance major intellectual and technological break-through to improve the lot of man and society, through basic and need-driven research programmes; and
    3. be adequately versed in their disciplines, and be competent to impart the knowledge to others in a conducive academic environment to ensure the continued existence of the system. 

    It is worth mentioning that our admission policy reflects 60% undergraduate and 40% postgraduate supported by highly qualified academic staff.
