Teaching commenced in the Faculty in the same year. In 1957, the School of Business and Social Studies was split into two schools, namely, The School of Social Studies; and the School of Business Administration. The School of Social Studies was renamed the Faculty of Social Sciences in October 1973. Prof. T.M. Yesufu and the Late Prof. Obasanmi Olakanpo provided the early leadership of the Faulty and laid the foundation for its subsequent expansion.</p><p> </p>
