My Biography
Hello, Welcome!
I am Prof. Samuel Ekundayo Oladipo, PhD , a Professor of Social Psychology at Tai Solarin Federal University of Education (TASFUED), Ogun State, Nigeria. With over 25 years of experience spanning teaching, research, academic leadership, administration, and community service, my career has been guided by a deep commitment to educational excellence and institutional development.
Born on June 29, 1969, in Oyo Town, my academic journey began with a Bachelor of Theology from the Christian Theological Seminary, Ibadan (1996). I subsequently earned a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology (1998) and a PhD in Personality and Social Psychology (2008) from the University of Ibadan, one of Africa’s foremost institutions.
To strengthen my pedagogical and administrative capacity, I obtained a Postgraduate Diploma in Education from Olabisi Onabanjo University (2001) and have completed multiple professional certifications in digital literacy, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, and academic development, aligning my expertise with the demands of a modern, technology-driven university system.
