To develop, the individuals and the nation socio-politically, economically, morally and culturally. University education helps to transmit the relevant body of knowledge, indulgesin research to explore new grounds for development and find solutions to problems that plague mankind, engagesin the production of cultured and patriotic citizens, and strives to promote national unity.  \nIn this era of globalization of education, Nigeria cannot afford to run a university system that compromises quality and standards if it is to compete in the global market. Globalization of the world economy is the integration of economics throughout the world through trade, education, financial flow, and exchange of technology, information and the mobility of people (Obade, 2020) . Since globalization has occasioned changes in the economy and subsequently education, proved by the fact that most economies of the world are now struggling and looking for  \nstrategies that will help in the production of knowledgebased citizens who are ready to meet the global challenges, there are bound to be changes in educational processes and methods (Obade, 2020) .  \nWith the upsurge in student population in Nigerian universities, existing facilities seem to be overstretched. Lecture halls are allegedly overcrowded and the buildings are yearning for attention. Many universities in Nigeria today seem to be shadows of themselves. Many researchers seem to agree that underfunding accounts for the alleged massive infrastructural decay and management incompetencies in Nigerian universities. This financial situation is predicated on the government's alleged economic quagmire, which in turn, has made her unable to allocate the UNESCO Mandatory 27% of her annual budget to education, as well as making governments (state and federal) give directives to universities to look inward for funds up to 10% of their annual financial outlay as Internally Generated Revenue (Ademla and Ukeki , 2019) .  \nEhiaguina et al. 145  \nInternally generated revenue for universities according to Obade (2020) is the income generated by a school from sources within its institution, such as tuition fees, sales of educational materials or textbooks, and rental of school facilities, among other","cbCaisEPwgrZJ1mU","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisEPwgrZJ1mU","pdf",161048,"English","# Introduction\n## Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) concept and relevance\n## Challenges of inadequate university funding\n## Revenue generation strategies and stakeholder concerns","[{\"question\":\"Why do Nigerian universities need internally generated revenue (IGR)?\",\"answer\":\"Nigeria’s university education faces inadequate funding due to economic constraints, and governments have directed universities to look inward for funds through IGR rather than relying solely on allocations.\"},{\"question\":\"What is internally generated revenue (IGR) in universities?\",\"answer\":\"IGR is income generated by a university from sources within the institution, such as tuition fees, sales of educational materials or textbooks, and rentals of school facilities.\"},{\"question\":\"What problems and risks are associated with IGR management?\",\"answer\":\"Problems include inadequate funding leading to facility decay and reduced research support, and IGR administration challenges such as leakages that require stronger controls and oversight.\"}]","Management of internally generated revenue in Nigerian universities - Review | PDF",1792071573,15]
