The University Inter-Campus Connectivity (UnICC) initiative is a collaborative project with the National Universities Commission under the Nigerian Research and Education Network (NgREN) project. The project is being deployed in two phases. The first phase involves the interconnection of the permanent (Main) campuses of selected Universities and their corresponding Teaching Hospitals or annex campuses through Optic Fibre Cable (OFC) and the second phase is the deployment of end-user electronics that will enable the utilization of the OFC.
The initiative provides seamless connection between the Universities and their Medical Colleges and Teaching Hospitals, enables the bi-directional communication for resource and content sharing, and facilitates research among benefitting institutions.
