ICT Center

The TASUED ICT Centre was established in the year 2010 as a genuine effort by the University Management to transform the then e-Learning Centre of the University for Enhanced Capacity and effectiveness. The ICT Centre is to provide the needed mix of man-power and technology for the realisation of the University ICT needs for enhanced administrative performance and staff productivity. The ICT Centre is headed by a Director and has survived successive four headships: Prof Arigbabu A.A as pioneer Director, succeeded by Dr Okesola J.O, then Dr Alaba O.B, Dr Fatade A.F, and currently by Dr. Adenubi A.O. who is being assisted by Mrs Abimbola B.L. as Deputy Director.

In the past few years, the ICT Centre has gone through a number of transformations in a bid to make it more efficient and effective; from outsourcing of its core services to external consultants to the current point of developing in-house competence in key ICT areas.
