Founder/ Pro-Chancellor
Welcome to Hillside University of Science and Technology, a hub of innovation, creativity, and problem-solving. It is my privilege as the Founder and Pro-Chancellor to share our vision and reaffirm our commitment to redefining education for the 21st century.
With a career spanning more than 35 years in diverse industries, including serving as the immediate past CEO of the Nigerian Economic Summit Group (NESG) and operating on boards and advisory functions, I have gained firsthand insights into the evolving demands of the modern workplace. My journey has revealed a critical challenge—the widening gap between academia and industry. Too often, graduates leave the classroom unprepared to meet the practical demands of the workforce. This realization became the cornerstone of my vision for Hillside University: to bridge this gap by producing industry-ready graduates who are equipped to solve real-world problems.
At Hillside University, education is not just about acquiring knowledge; it is about applying that knowledge to create meaningful impact. Our mission is to empower students with the skills, mindset, and experiences they need to become leaders, innovators, and problem-solvers in their communities and beyond
We are driven by the belief that education should do more than prepare students for exams—it should prepare them for life. At Hillside University, our approach is guided by the Triple Helix Model, which fosters collaboration between academia, industry, and government. This model ensures that our graduates are employable and equipped to create solutions for the pressing challenges of our time.
Our curriculum is designed with input from industry leaders, ensuring that every course aligns with the skills and knowledge required in the workplace. From hands-on training in advanced engineering labs to entrepreneurial development programs, we are committed to producing graduates who are ready to hit the ground running.
Hillside University is more than a place of learning—it is a launch pad for innovation. Whether it’s developing cutting-edge solutions in healthcare, pioneering advancements in aerospace engineering, or driving economic growth through entrepreneurship, we are dedicated to transforming education into a tool for solving societal challenges.
At Hillside University of Science and Technology, we are building a new paradigm of education—one that prepares students to succeed in a dynamic world, solve problems, and lead with impact. I invite you to join us on this transformative journey. Together, we can inspire innovation, nurture talent, and create a better future for all.
