dc.description.abstractGlobally, Universities have three complementary missions (three cardinal objectives), namely teaching, research, and community development. Thus, the community engagement component of the University’s traditional three-track mandate disposes Universities towards Social Responsibilities. It is against this background that the study assessed the contribution of Kwara State University (Kwasu), Community Services on the development of Malete community. The study made use of questionnaire and Focus Group Discussion to obtain primary data necessary for the study. Secondary data was derived from relevant documents to complement the primary data. Quantitative data collected through questionnaire was analysed both descriptively and inferentially. The inferential statistical tool for the study is multiple regression technique with the help of Statistical package for Social Science (SPSS) version 25.0. On the other hand, the responses of Focus Group Discussion were thematically analyzed. The study found among others that KWASU’s healthcare services and educational services has positively contributed to the development of Malete community. However, the significance of this can be judged from the P value represented as “sig” and the t statistics. The study therefore recommended among others the need for the University community should ensure that the services (both health and educational services) are accessible and affordable for the local community. The study also recommends the need for the University management to create outreach programmes to educate the community about health and education issues.
