TRANSITION OF B.SC (ARCHITECTURE) GRADUANDS TO M.SC (ARCHITECTURE) PROGRAM.
The University of Ilorin established the Department of Architecture alongside four other Departments in the Faculty of Environmental Sciences in the 2013/2014 Academic Session when a total number of twenty-nine students were admitted to study B.Sc (Architecture) program as in the first tier.
However, a total of twenty four (24) students eventually graduated with B.Sc (Architecture) in 2017, were required to transit to M.Sc (Architecture) program of the Department as a pre- requisite in the study of Architecture. In the light of the above, since the graduands were to transit, the Postgraduate school is now required to absorb them into the Masters of Science Degree (M.Sc) in Architecture.
