Abstract
University education came to Nigeria for the first time when the first university college was established at Ibadan in 1948. Since then there has been rapid growth and expansion of universities across the country. The expansion of universities has created management problems in enrolment, staffing, funding, material/facilities, etc. This study is designed to examine the extent and gravity of these problems. The study emphasizes the need to increase the number of universities to satisfy the desires of Nigerian youths to obtain university degrees. It also stresses the need for adequate funding to eliminate problems of financing in order to enhance the provision of facilities and qualitative staffing for effective teaching to achieve the goals of university education.
