College of Administration & Management Studies

The College started as Department of Administration and Management Studies in 1979 under the former Katsina College of Arts Science and Technology. At that time it offered two (2) year Advanced Certificate Courses in Administrative and Business Studies and a one (1) year introductory course in commercial subjects. National Diploma Programme started in 1980 while advanced certificate courses were stopped in 1982.

The School consisted of five Academic Departments viz: Department of Accounting, Department of Business Administration, Department of Public Administration, Department of Languages and General Studies and Department of Secretarial Studies. The school was converted to a College of Administration and Management Studies in 1990 when a re-organization of the Academic Units was undertaken. At present the College is made up of four Academic Departments as follows:- Department of Accounting, Department of Business Administration, Department of Secretarial Studies and Department of Public Administration. Both Full-Time and Part-Time programmes are offered. The part-time programmes started in 1995.
