Meanwhile, your Learning Experience Officer, Blessing has been working on improving postgraduate timetables as part of her manifesto. She collaborated with the University to introduce block teaching, beginning this term. Postgraduate lectures will now be scheduled over two to three days each week, replacing the previous four or five-day schedule. This new format aims to reduce commuting costs, give students more time for assessments, and improve class attendance and student engagement.

Both Dan and Blessing are working hard to create positive changes for students, bringing both celebration and academic improvement to the university community.
