Audu Bako School of Agriculture

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Audu Bako School of Agriculture in Dambatta, Kano State, Nigeria, awards diplomas in technical and vocational subjects for middle-level manpower. In 2005 the college had 400 students.[1] The college was established in 2002 and is owned and operated by Kano State. It is accredited to offer courses in agricultural and related technology, and a pre-ND course in Science and Technology.[2] It is named after Audu Bako, a former governor of the state.[3]

In November 2006, it was among a number of polytechnics for which the National Board for Technical Education suspended admission of students for either failing to secure accreditation or running foul of the law.[citation needed]

Faculties and programmes[]

The College of Agriculture currently has only one faculty (Faculty of Agriculture) with only four programmes. These programmes include agricultural engineering/technology, agricultural technology, animal health and production technology and forestry technology.[4]
