The University currently has 10 institutes. They also run IJMB and remedial sciences under the Directorate of Institute and Continuing Education. The most amazing fact about this institution is how they have attracted young people from all over the country. The school currently boasts of over 15,000 students, a number that is highly impressive, given it was established less than 18 years ago.

The Kano State University of Science and Technology may not be among the most popular Universities in Nigeria, but it remains one of the best in the country. Although debatable, it is believed that education in the Northern part of Nigeria has not been on the high for a long time. The issue is surely not because of lack of standard educational institutions in the area. In fact, one of the best universities in the country is located at the heart of Northern Nigeria and the establishment of KUST in Kano State only confirms the interest of the Federal and State Government in promoting education in the region.

Since its establishment in 2001, this University of Science and Technology has made a huge progress in its development, boasting of high calibre lecturers and academic and non-academic staff in its rank. Science and Engineering students will appreciate the rising institution more because of its well-equipped laboratories and general facilities. While the school’s location has only helped its popularity in the northern part of the country, its fast academic calendar and standard learning culture has made the university one of the most sort after state institutions in Northern Nigeria. The institution has drawn a well-deserved praise from all over the country for its academic standard and overall learning culture.
