Lagos State University, LASU has secured approval from the National Universities Commission, NUC to introduce four new full-time undergraduate programmes in its Faculty of Computing and Information Technology, beginning from the 2025/2026 academic session.
The approval was confirmed in a letter dated 3 November 2025, signed by the Acting Director of Academic Planning, Abubakar M. Girei, following a successful resource verification exercise by NUC panels who assessed the university’s readiness in terms of staffing and infrastructure.
The newly approved programmes are: B.Sc. Cyber Security, B.Sc. Software Engineering, B.Sc. Information and Communication Technology and B.Sc. Data Science
LASU described the development as a major step in its drive to expand technology-focused education and produce graduates equipped for Nigeria’s digital economy. The approval, however, applies strictly to full-time modes for now.
With the addition of these programmes, the university says it remains committed to strengthening its leadership in computing, innovation, and future-ready skills development.
