Overview

Key facts:

The Communication and Language Arts programme is offered at the University Of Ibadan.
During its first five years of existence, the centre's resources were devoted to the achievement of the first and the second sets of objectives. In subsequent years, the centre's objectives were broadened and its resources expanded, not only to meet the requirements of developmental, remedial and rapid reading, but also to take care of related language skills (listening comprehension, speech and writing) and communication arts.

In the 1987/88 session, the department's name changed to Department of Communication and Language Arts in order to reflect more properly, the scope of its work and provide training in communication skills for the individual's social, professional and intellectual growth. The conversion of the Centre from a teaching support unit to a degree-awarding department after ten years of existence was a very significant change in the development and study of Language Arts as an academic discipline in this University. In addition, its subsequent broadening to encompass communication arts has made it even more relevant to the country's communication needs, making it a very popular course of study.
