The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has kicked against the core curriculum minimum academic standards (CCMAS) developed by the National Universities Commission (NUC).
The CCMAS — usually prepared by the NUC, universities, and relevant education stakeholders — stipulates the minimum academic requirements for the training of undergraduates in various programmes.
The NUC recently designed CCMAS for 17 programmes in universities across the country.
But in a statement on Friday, Emmanuel Osodeke, ASUU president, said the process leading to the curriculum threatens university autonomy.
