Staffing Resource Requirement for Teaching and Learning Academic Staff This should be in the ratio of one academic staff to eight students, where a department has up to eight areas of specialization each area should have at least four lecturers at the senior category. This number should be increased where there are postgraduate programmes. In order to prevent the practice of indigenous arts and crafts from becoming extinct; traditional craftsmen should be invited to the university for short periods as Artist-in-Residence. It is expected that his will enable them to transfer their skills to younger generation. Library Each Faculty/School should be provided with fully equipped library and information technology centre with computers and Internet connectivity and quick reference books, periodicals, journals and audio-visual materials. Such library and information resources will be additional to the University central library facilities. Classrooms, Laboratories, Clinics, Workshops and Offices Space Use Minimum (m²) 1.
