About the Air Force Institute of Technology

The Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT) a military university ( recently approved by the Nigerian university council as a federal university) institution. 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.

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 the 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 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.
