The challenges of ICT on learning process in state universities were discussed using descriptive survey, unstructured interview, observations and participatory experience. The study revealed that ICT is effective tool in improvement of overall quality, performance, knowledge and skills.

Recommendations made were that all employed teachers in federal, state and private universities should undertake mandatory training and retraining on ICT programmers. This is to provide them with practical and functional knowledge of computer, internet and associated areas of ICT for improved effectiveness and efficiency. Government should develop ICT policies and practices that would support lecturers in their academic work and students in their learning. ICT tools should be made more accessible to all the students and staff. Also, digital divide should be bridged within and between the staff of universities, teaching should move from the box of colored chalk to e-learning. All hands, that is, government, parents and Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) must be on deck towards computerization of Indian universities, the globalization of education and network education management.
