The Tai Solarin University of Education is a state university of education in Nigeria. It was established in 2005. It is located in Ijagun, Ijebu-Ode, Ogun State.
The Vision of the TASUED is to be the preferred Education University, which will excel in preparing educators who will be leaders in all spheres of the discipline.
Mission
“Our mission is to enhance the quality of teaching and learning and continuously update the methods and skills of knowledge providers by equipping them with modern technology services delivered by skilled and motivated members of staff to meet the contemporary and future needs of Nigeria with the capability to compete globally.”
A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSITY
Establishment of institutions is a product of many factors which include significantly the prevailing socio-political circumstances at the time of their birth. The story of Tai Solarin University of Education, Ijagun via Ijebu Ode is not particularly different from this basic assumption.
It is the story of an institution founded at the beginning of the new millennium to enhance strategic human capital development of the State in the diverse, fast changing, global and technologically competitive dynamics of the teaching profession.
Welcome to Tai Solarin University of Education, the Nation’s Premier University of Education and the preferred University of Education of the 21st Century. TASUED was proclaimed by the Ogun State Government on the 29th of January, 2005, and approved by the National Universities Commission (NUC) on the 28th of November, 2005, as the 76th and the first specialized University of Education in Nigeria. We are 2nd in Africa and 8th in the World, hence our adoption of the formula 1-2-8.
TASUED is proudly the flagship of University of Education in Nigeria and a unique tertiary institution teaching both the curriculum subject contents and the pedagogy for effective transfer of knowledge.
The University is located on the large expanse of land along Sagamu–Ore-Benin expressway in Ijagun, Imaweje and Ijele Communities on a beautiful landscape where the main campus is situated in a serene academic environment.
It is important to note that TASUED is a transformation of the then Tai Solarin College of Education (TASCE) that was formerly Ogun State College of Education established in 1978, the first tertiary Institution to be established by the Ogun State Government after its creation in 1976.
The old College of Education offered an opportunity for the immediate take off of the University in view of the huge financial responsibilities of acquiring a new site and establishing a new campus somewhere else.
