Abstract: The study examined strategies for enhancing administrative cohesion and cooperation among universities for sustainable development in the North Central region of Nigeria. Two research questions and two hypotheses guided the study. Survey design was adopted for the study. A self-constructed questionnaire titled; Strategies for Enhancing Inter-Institutional Cohesion and cooperation for sustainable Development (SEICSD) was used for the collection of data. The collected data was analyzed using mean and standard deviation to answer the research questions and chi square test of goodness-of-fit was used to test the hypotheses at 0.05 level of significance. The population of the study was 1124 top University Management Staff across the Universities in North Central Nigeria. A sample of 295 of the staff derived through Taro Yamene Computation was proportionately sampled and used for the study. The result of the study showed that inter-institutional linkages and diplomatic negotiations are great strategies for enhancement of administrative cohesiveness and cooperation amongst Universities. This no doubt results to sustainable development. It was therefore recommended that; the Visitors of the universities shouldencourage the Managements of their Universities to adopt inter-institutional strategies of linkages and diplomatic negotiations for the enhancement of social and economic cooperation among universities for sustainable development.
