Covenant University: The rise of the Eagles!
Nigerian Higher Institutions graduate over 1 million students annually into the Nigerian workforce in the face of numerous challenges such as rundown facilities, inadequate tutoring, staff strikes, etc. These challenges have led to a majority of graduates ending up unemployed or underemployed.
However, Covenant University (CU) is doing things differently (or so it seems) as 9 out of 10 of its graduates are employed after graduation. CU has been identified as an institution that breeds stars and influence makers in society, all achieved in a relatively short span.
This case study analyses the environment, strengths, challenges, operations and competitive edge that has made it successful.
