Abstract

Objective: The aims and objective of University Education are well documented in the National Policy on

Education and the vision and mission of Osun State University well spelt out in the Law establishing the University. The contributions of all stakeholders-the Academic and Non-Teaching Staff;Students, Parents and the community,  to the pursuit of the aims and objectives of University education and the objective of setting up Osun State University would facilitate the realization of these aims and objective. The study examined the methods of reforming and modifying college administration in Osun State University for improved productivity.

Methods: The structure and the design of the university administration system have made assigning responsibilities an easy task. The task, if well carried out by all stakeholders , will pave the way for the realization of the educational goals and objectives in Osun State University. The study therefore discusses the methods to be employed by all the stakeholders in carrying out the tasks to make the system more efficient and effective in the discharge of responsibilities.

Conclusion: The pursuit of academic excellence may be more rewarding if the administrative structure is reformed  and responsibilities redefined to enable all stakeholders take on their responsibilities for improved productivity in Osun State University. The pursuit of academic excellence is therefore  the responsibility of all stakeholders in college administration.
