Head Of Department

Welcome to the Department

The Department of Microbiology at Obafemi Awolowo University in Ile-Ife offers a supportive study atmosphere and career coaching. Its mission is to prepare graduates for future leadership via teaching, research, and community service. Alumni have jobs around the world. The department encourages national and international connections and is delighted to be among the best in the country.
In the high sense of our service in the turnout of functional graduates, the Department has trained students who have been offered appointments in teaching, research and all other areas requiring human resources both within the Department, the university, and beyond including the Diaspora. Indeed, the Department of Microbiology has been regenerating herself for the service of humanity. We also maintain a wide range of useful and cordial partnership with colleagues and relevant users of our products both within and outside Nigeria. We are proud to humbly conclude that we are one of the best in the country.
