About the School
This is a brief history of the school as culled from online sources.
The Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT) is a monotechnics ( recently approved by the Nigerian university council as a federal university) institution and provider of National Diploma. It supports the Nigeria Air Force (NAF) and civilian communities by the provision of basic training on Aeronautics, aerospace engineering and avionics. It is located in Kaduna state, Northern side of Nigeria.
Overview
Following the outbreak of the Nigerian civil war, a variety of aircraft types and associated weapon systems resulted in skilled manpower to operate and maintain them. The NAF at that time depended on foreign assistance for manpower development. However, the training vacancies which friendly overseas countries offered the NAF were limited, inadequate and also required huge foreign exchange financing. Consequently, soon after the civil war in 1970, HQ NAF mooted the idea of establishing an indigenous Technical and Supply School.
AFIT was founded in 1977 with the name NAF Technical and Supply School (TSS). It was supported by Messrs Dornier of Germany. The institute was renamed in 1979 as Technical Training Wing and was called NAF Technical Training Group (NAF TTG). The group was tasked with the responsibility of providing basic training for NAF personnel in the field of aircraft maintenance, armament, and communication. Others are supply management. By the year 2000, its identity was changed to 320 Technical Training Group (320TTG). It was created to manage aircraft and equipment bought during the Nigerian Civil War in 1967.
The need to keep pace with technological development through an increase in manpower capacity building further led to the upgrading of most of the certificates awarded by the Institution to a National Diploma, with full accreditation by the National Board for Technical Education, (NBTE). The Institute was also an affiliated with Cranfield University, the UK for Post Graduate Studies in Aerospace Vehicle Design and related fields and it became evident and necessary to effect a change in the nomenclature to reflect the expanded role of the institute. AFIT thus came into being on 12 March 2008.
SCHOOLS
Currently, AFIT comprises 5 schools, each consisting of various departments. The schools are School of Postgraduate Studies (SPS), School of Air Engineering (SAE), School of Ground Engineering and Environmental Studies (SGEES), School of Business and Management Studies ( SBMS) and School of Technical and Vocational Training (STVT). All the basic course curricula are structured to meet the minimum requirements for MSc in the aerospace sector.
The institute has so far graduated over 5,689 persons, including personnel of the NA, NN, and NAF as well as civilians. It is pertinent to state that this number includes foreign students from the Armed Forces of the Republic of Benin, Zimbabwe, Niger, Ghana, and Sierra Leone.
