What are we all about?

We are the custodians and projectors of things that illuminate our culture and the world around us. Through the humanities, students are made to understand  human society clearly, behave more responsibly, comprehend more fully and feel more deeply. They also learn to express themselves effectively, understand the dynamism of cultural issues, appreciate the power of words and ideas, and interpret human experience.

How well positioned are we to achieve this?

The Ikire Campus is set within a picturesque piece of real estate surrounded by a natural topography designed for great intellectual work. It is the gateway campus of UNIOSUN, so strategically placed as to grant easy access to students and parents from any part of the country. Our college offers the most innovative curricula in which students are trained in a liberal and democratic manner to comprehend systems and patterns of existence, to think analytically and responsibly in order to be useful in any future task, and to embrace the complex challenges of the present world. Our campus is equipped with state-of-the-art teaching and research facilities.

The humanities constitute the cornerstone of higher education in the world. In taking any of the courses we have mounted, students broaden their historical, ethical, social and international perspectives and enhance themselves intellectually and creatively for any job in the ever-expanding national and global markets.
