The University of Medical Sciences, Ondo State, has commenced the installation of an internet connection facility across its campuses and hostels, enabling students and staff to have prompt access to information.<\/p>\n
According to the Public Relations Officer of the institution, Isaac Oluyi, the development will help reduce the cost of communication and internet fees, particularly among the student population.<\/p>\n
Oluyi, in a statement, emphasised that the move was part of efforts by the new Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Ebunoluwa Adejuyigbe, to make UNIMED a truly world-class institution and maintained that the development was a result of a partnership with Sam Smith Global Company Limited.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe facility will, among others, provide 24\u2011hour, per\u2011session internet bandwidth service, provide network engineering support 24 hours per day per session, and help reduce the cost of communication and internet fees.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt will also provide a single\u2011hop direct connection to the international Internet backbone, provide real\u2011time monitoring of performance and use of infrastructure, provide centralised administrative controls for user management, promote secure and accessible exchange of information and sharing of ideas within UNIMED, etc.<\/p>\n
The Vice-Chancellor added that \u201caccess to quality information at the speed of light gives any institution a huge advantage to be globally competitive and relevant. One of my cardinal objectives is to reposition UNIMED as a global brand in teaching, research and community service.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo stone will be left unturned in achieving this. Under my administration, UNIMED will become a one-stop institution for medical and health sciences education through deployment of high-end technology.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The University of Medical Sciences, Ondo State, has commenced the installation of an internet connection facility across its…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":209789,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[1638,86,56,90405,54,55],"class_list":["post-209788","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-internet","tag-internet","tag-technology","tag-uk","tag-unimed","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/209788","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=209788"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/209788\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/209789"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=209788"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=209788"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=209788"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
