DISCOVER ACADEMICS
At Federal University of Technology, Yola, we prepare you to make a difference in the world. Here, teaching means giving students the chance to do far more than listen. It means providing the opportunity to become truly involved with great thinkers and to reap the benefits of this interaction.

You will study with highly accomplished faculty who are dedicated to their roles as educators and who often incorporate their scholarly or professional pursuits from outside the classroom into exciting teaching material. Your education will come not just from the time you spend in the classroom, but from meeting with your professors during office hours, by learning from your peers, and from professional internships and opportunities for international study.

FUTY is a complex community. It continuously integrates disparate parts into a greater whole. It is a federal university that contributes to the public good. As a major research institution, FUTY fosters creativity and innovation, but teaching is still its most important function.
ALUMNI RELATIONS OFFICE
Overview
The Alumni Relations Office was established in 2007 by Prof. A.Y. Ribadu, who on assumption of office as the Vice Chancellor of FUT Yola, instituted the first ever Alumni Relations Office, and appointed Mr. Franklyn Chukwunonso as the Ag. Coordinator, Alumni Relations Office.
The Ag. Alumni Relations Officer (Ag. ARO) on inception commenced an aggressive awareness campaign and strategic plan of action on enlightening and collating data of all FUTY Alumni.
Brief History
On September 6 2008, an inaugural meeting of the FUTY Alumni Association was held at the FUTY Multipurpose Hall and was organized and sponsored by the University through the Office of the Vice Chancellor, FUTY Alumni Relations Office. Protem officers of the Association were elected with mandate to organize and ensure a formidable Alumni Association in the headquarters and also draft a constitution to be presented to the General Assembly of the FUTY Alumni Association within six months of inauguration by which time a fresh election is to be conducted. The Executive Officers elected were:
1. Mr. Franklyn Chukwunonso President (Ag. ARO)
2. Mr. Lawrence P. Ganchok Secretary
3. Mr. Yusuf Chidama Public Relations Officer
4. Dr. Sunday Osamaehon Director of Socials
5. Mr. Kabiru Bello Njidda Financial Secretary
The Protem EXCO since then have held a series of meetings finally resulting in the decision to organize a FUTY Alumni Dinner Night on the 1st of October 2008, in line with its mandate of sensitizing and creating awareness about the alma mata. This date was strategic as it was not only the Nigerian National Independence day, but also within the Sallah Celebration and it was believed that many FUTY Alumni will be home for the long holiday period to attend the Dinner Night. Since the EXCO was starting from a zero financial level, it decided to transform itself into the Local Organizing Committee (LOC) for the dinner night. The committee came up with a budget of three hundred and fifty thousand naira (N350,000.00) only, and tasked itself along with some donations in the sum of fifty thousand naira from one of its Alumnus, the CEO of Kassido Communications Limited.
Afterwards, the Protem Officers embarked on an elaborate awareness campaign to reach out to all alumni members by paying courtesy calls on all the media houses in Yola (Fombina FM Radio, Radio Gotel, Adamawa Television ATV and Nigeria Television Authority NTA,) to intimate them and also invite them to the Dinner Night. To make the event a grand one, the Committee embarked on the printing of invitation letters, banners, T-shirts, face caps, call cards, alumni letter headed paper, stickers and posters. Adverts were also placed on radio and television stations. The Committee tasked its members to bring in names, emails and mobile numbers of at least 50 known alumni members for direct contact by sms and emails. The names were collated and the text messages were sent out to all.
On 26th March 2009, the Protem Officers, in keeping with their six (6) months mandate called for an Annual General Meeting, during which the following agenda was to be deliberated:
• Presentation and Adoption of FUTY Alumni National Constitution by the congress, subject to review.
• Election of Electoral Committee Members
• Deliberations on Representative of FUTY Alumni in the University Council
• A.O.B.
However, some days before the proposed meeting, it was brought to the Notice of the Ag. ARO that FUTY Alumni Association had officials who were elected some years ago. The meeting was however held but it was decided that another meeting be scheduled for the 28th of March 2009 so as to ascertain to these facts.
On the said day, after much deliberations between the Ag. ARO and the Protem Officers along with the earlier elected officers, it was reached that a meeting between the Ag. ARO and the two camps be scheduled to see how to streamline the two executives in the interest and unity of the Alma Mata.
