The Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta's Governing Council, at its 80th meeting held
recently, has approved the splitting of the institution's College of Natural
Sciences (COLNAS), into the College of Biosciences (COLBIOS) and College of Physical
Sciences (COLPHYS).
The emergence of the new Colleges would revatilise academic
activities for better and efficient service delivery, allow for the evolution
of other courses in line with modern trends and give room for the introduction
of other demand-driven programmes, as obtainable in international academic
communities, as well as prepare the University for the desired future
expansion.The four Departments under COLBIOS are: Biochemistry, Microbiology, Pure and Applied Botany, and Pure and Applied Zoology while the five Departments under COLPHYS are: Chemistry, Computer Science and Information Technology, Mathematics, Physics and Statistics.
This brings the total number of Colleges in the University to ten, in addition to the Postgraduate School. The Colleges are: College of Management Sciences (COLMAS), College of Environmental Resources Management (COLERM), College of Animal Science and Livestock Production (COLANIM), College of Plant Science and Crop Production (COLPLANT), College of Engineering (COLENG), College of Food Science and Human Ecology (COLFHEC), College of Veterinary Medicine (COLVET), College of Biosciences (COLBIOS), College Of Agricultural Management and Rural Development (COLAMRUD)and College of Physical Sciences (COLPHYS).
