The Kaduna State University, on Tuesday, matriculated no fewer than 7,143 students, with a charge on them to utilise the institution’s support services for academic excellence.
The matriculated students were fresh undergraduates and postgraduates of the 2020/2021 and 2021/2022 academic sessions.
Addressing the students, the Vice Chancellor, Prof. Abdullahi Musa, said the institution had numerous resources and support services for the students, including skills for self-employment and entrepreneurship.
“Education should be a partnership between the student, the faculty, and the institution, with the ultimate goal of empowering our students to become lifelong learners and leaders in their chosen fields.
“One of the most significant challenges facing students today is the rapidly changing nature of the job market,” he said.
Musa, therefore, urged the matriculants to prepare for the challenges, adding that the institution was committed to providing the students with the tools and skills necessary for self-employment and entrepreneurship.
He explained that fostering a culture of innovation and entrepreneurship in the students would equip them with the knowledge and skills necessary to create and manage their own businesses.
“At the heart of this endeavour is the development of critical thinking skills.
“Critical thinking is the ability to analyse information, evaluate arguments, and solve complex problems.
“We believe that these skills are essential for success in any field, we are committed to helping you develop them,” he said.
The VC reiterated the institution’s commitment to providing the students with a comprehensive education that included practical skills training.
He also restated the university’s commitment to ensuring that the students have access to the latest technology and equipping them with the skills necessary to succeed in the digital age.
“Again, I would like to reiterate our commitment to providing you with a student-centred education that emphasises self-employment, critical thinking, skills acquisition, independent learning, active learning, and digital transformation technology,” Musa said.
He urged the students to uphold the core values of the institution which included academic excellence, integrity, and respect for diversity.
“These values define us as a community, and we expect each and every one of you to live up to them,” he further said.
