College of Leadership and Development Studies

At the inception of the University in 2002 and up till 2009, there were three Colleges: College of Business Studies (CBS), College of Human Development (CHD) and College of Science and Technology (CST). In 2009/2010 session, a restructuring of the University led to the amalgamation of College of Business Studies (CBS) and College of Human Development (CHD), becoming the College of Development Studies (CDS).

The College of Leadership and Development Studies (CLDS) came into existence in the 2014/2015 academic session. It was carved out of the former College of Development Studies. The College is headed by a Dean while the Schools are headed by Deputy Deans.
