| dc.description.abstract | Students of public universities face many challenges of transportation issues which affect their well-being. The study investigated undergraduates’ perception of transport issues in public universities in Nigeria. The study adopted descriptive study design. The sample of the study was undergraduates in public universities in four selected states in South-west in Nigeria using simple random sampling technique. The instrument employed for data collection was self-structured questionnaire tagged “Undergraduates’ Perception on Transport Issues in Public Universities Questionnaire (UPTIPUQ)”. The data collected were analysed using descriptive statistics of mean and rank order to answer the research questions. Finding revealed that major problems of transportation issues in public universities in Nigeria as perceived by undergraduates was the limited available buses/cars in the school. The finding also revealed that major causes, effects and solutions to transportation issues were the limited available cabs/buses, spending long hours at the school park to board cabs/buses make undergraduates get home late and affected their learning activities. It was recommended that means of increasing transport service should be explored. Ensuring the punctuality of the students for lectures rests on the brief and cogent university transport strategy and policy in the university communities. | en_US |
