History of Dorben University
Dorben Polytechnic, formerly Abuja School of Accountancy and Computer Studies-ASACS Abuja is a private tertiary institution accredited by the Federal Ministry of Education (FME) and the National Board for Technical Education (NBTE) in Nigeria, West Africa.
It was incorporated in 1995 and was approved and accredited as a school by the National Board for Technical Education and the Nigerian Federal Ministry of Education in 1999. Starting with just 250 students, as of 2010 Dorben had more than 3500 students and over 45 faculty members. Before being accredited as a polytechnic in 2007, the school had to acquire 50 hectares of land, have a minimum of one hundred million naira bank guarantee and mount core engineering programs.
In September 2008 the National Association of Nigerian Students bestowed an award of Excellence on the chairman of the management board of the Dorben Polytechnic, Dr. A.B. Ekwere. Speaking in October 2009, Ekwere said that four lecturers who had been sacked for examination malpractices were seeking the help of local chiefs to beg for their reinstatement. He was not sympathetic, and said that the institution made every effort to prevent cheating on exams.
Dorben Polytechnic was established to provide high quality academic studies for individuals who intend to develop career as professionals and technical experts with self reliance. It is with this in mind that the polytechnic strives over the years to position itself as a center of academic excellence.
On the strength of the above, many important personalities from other parts of the globe have had cause to visit the polytechnic for the purpose of interaction in areas of technical cooperation.
