Do the Higher Education Commission in Mauritius and Nigeria’s NUC License Universities?
Yes. The Higher Education Commission in Mauritius and Nigeria’s National Universities Commission are the main bodies that regulate and oversee universities in their respective countries. In Nigeria, the National Universities Commission approves and licenses federal, state and private universities. It also accredits academic programmes and monitors standards in degree-awarding institutions. In Mauritius, the Higher Education Commission registers and regulates tertiary institutions, accredits programmes and oversees quality assurance. It can also grant university status to private institutions that meet the required standards. If you are considering a particular school, confirm both the institution’s recognition and the accreditation status of its specific programme.
