The Faculty of Arts at the University of Lagos (UNILAG) has partnered with smartphone brand TECNO, following the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on Monday, June 4, 2025. The partnership was facilitated through Carlcare Development Nigeria Limited, TECNO’s official service partner.

The collaboration will see the launch of a TECNO Club in the Faculty and the creation of a Technology Experience Centre where students will have access to world-class technology, practical training and career development opportunities.

Representing UNILAG at the signing ceremony were the Dean of the Faculty of Arts, Professor Ilupeju Akanbi Mudashiru and the Registrar, Mrs. Victoria Abosede Wickliffe. Representing Carlcare was Li Liang, the Human Resource Director. Also present at the ceremony were Olumide Yomi-Omolayo, TECNO’s Marketing Manager and other senior officials from both institutions.

Speaking on the relevance of the partnership, Professor Ilupeju said, “By working with a technology leader like TECNO, our students will have the opportunity to translate their academic learning into practical industry skills, preparing them for success in today’s competitive job market.”

Through this partnership, students will also have access to the TECNO Creators Hub, a platform designed to nurture content creators, storytellers, and digital innovators. This will provide students with tools, training, and resources to produce high-quality content for a global audience.
