Vice-Chancellor of the institution, Prof. Debo Adeyewa, who received the award on behalf of the school, said the feat has justified the university’s huge investment in e-administration, sound quality assurance and state-of-the-art equipment enabling the university to have the competitive edge.
He said that the university had structured its internal processes and systems in line with international best practices and that it was heartwarming that the university was able to outperform other contestants.
He dedicated the award to the “Great Redeemer of Redeemer’s University” for the enabling grace and also the institution’s internal stakeholders for their outstanding contributions to the growth and development of the university.
The vice-chancellor further noted that excellence is not just an idea but has become the overall philosophy and the culture of members of staff in carrying out their assignments.
“The university emerged through a rigorous quality management audit system based on globally acclaimed best practices in line with International Standard Organization’s criteria.
“For organisations to compete at the level three, category A, in which RUN emerged as winner they must have implemented a quality approach and conducted an internal quality management system audit and also have a large staff strength that exceeds 100 employees.
“Such organisations went through several rigorous rounds of assessments based on a set of criteria derived from the standards issued by the International Organisation for Standardisation,” he said.
