Background


The Committee of Vice-Chancellors (CVC) of Nigerian Universities was founded in 1962. The CVC subsequently established the Association of Vice Chancellors of Nigerian Universities (AVCNU) as a forum for Vice Chancellors of ALL Nigerian Universities be they Federal, State or privately owned to interact and engage each other in the formulation of implementation of policies that foster growth of Nigeria's tertiary institutions.

Over the years, the conference has served as an avenue to gather all the University Vice-chancellors in Nigeria so they can exchange ideas, debate issues and outline solutions to the challenges they face within their individual institutions.


The Host


Osun State University (UniOsun) is set up as a conventional, multi-campus university charged with the production of high quality, well–rounded, globally competitive and entrepreneurial graduates who are catalysts for rapid and sustainable socio-economic development of Osun State and Nigeria.  For more information go to http://www.osunstateuniversity.edu.ng
