The College of Engineering (COLENG), Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta (FUNAAB), would hold a Research and Leadership Seminar/Workshop Series on Wednesday, October 21, 2026.
The seminar, themed “Transformational Leadership in Academia: Moving from Manager to Visionary Leader,” is designed to strengthen leadership capacity and promote effective and transformative leadership within the academic environment.
