The project, which is set to position Bauchi as a hub for oil and gas education, is currently in full swing with several key infrastructural developments already underway.

2. Clinic – A clinic is being built to ensure that the health and well-being of students and staff are taken care of on the campus.

4. Hostels – Both male and female hostels are in development, offering modern and comfortable accommodations for students.
5. Lecture Theatres – Two lecture theatres are being constructed to provide state-of-the-art facilities for lectures, seminars, and academic events.
