UI Teaching and Research Assistantship Award Competition Objectives

The Postgraduate College Teaching and Research Assistantship Award is designed to promote and reinforce a culture of academic excellence among doctoral Scholars at the University of Ibadan. It is particularly targeted at scholars who are carrying out advanced research in any academic discipline within the University of Ibadan. Through the scheme, support is offered to scholars already pursuing doctoral degree programmes to acquire basic skills in teaching and research, the expectation being that this will contribute immensely to the pedagogical and research skills of the awardees.

The award carries a monthly stipend subject to review by the Postgraduate College from time to time. Each recipient, to be designated as the “Postgraduate College Teaching and Research Assistant”, will be required to give formal service to his/her Department/Institute as Teaching Assistants or Demonstrators. The Postgraduate College may also require the services of the awardees on special occasions. The Assistantship will be awarded to cover a period of one academic session, in the first instance, renewable for two academic sessions, subject to the positive evaluation of about 2,500 words long project summary, and a progress report from the supervisor, endorsed by the Head of Department, at the end of each academic session.
