University profile
Nubian American Advanced College (NAAC) is a private college in Lekki, Lagos, modelled on the American two-year community (junior) college. It awards associate degrees (A.A., A.A.S., A.S.), National Diplomas, technical diplomas, and certificates and professional certifications, delivered through traditional, virtual and hybrid learning. Its stated aim is to blend American-style and Nigerian higher education, with hands-on, job-related learning.
The college is located on LFS Maben Road, off Northern Foreshore, Chevron Drive, Lekki, Lagos. Lectures run in a hybrid format: most of the 15 weeks of a semester is taken remotely through a learning management system, and students attend campus for a one-week residency each semester.
Academic work is organised in the School of Business and Management, School of Engineering (civil, electrical, computer and mechanical engineering), School of Health Sciences (including pre-nursing, nursing, health science and public health science), School of Arts and Sciences, School of Agriculture, a School of Philosophy and Religious Studies, and the Institute of Professional, Vocational and Technical Studies, which is headed by Prof. Nojimu Adetunji Amusa. National Diploma programmes include Business Administration and Management, Accountancy and Computer Science. Associate degree programmes require a minimum of 60 credit hours over two years.
A credit transfer pathway lets students complete 60 semester hours at NAAC and then continue to a bachelor's degree at partner US universities, among them Salisbury University, Tuskegee University, Johnson C. Smith University and Tennessee State University. National Diploma graduates can progress to direct entry into degree programmes locally or abroad, or to a higher diploma.
NAAC is approved by the Federal Ministry of Education, holds the permission of the Lagos State Government and is accredited by the National Board for Technical Education (NBTE). It is working toward further accreditation in Nigeria and U.S. regional accreditation. Admission is open to Nigerian and international applicants.
