Abstract: The purpose was to investigate the problems of part-time/outreach programme in Emmanuel Alayande College of Education, Oyo, oyo state, Nigeria. Six research questions were raised to guide the conduct of the research. Three hundred students in the part-time/outreach programes in Emmanuel Alayande College of Education, Oyo, participated in the study. Structured questionnaire was used as instruments for the study. The surveyed variables included problems faced by students in connection with the availability of classroom and seats, qualifications of lecturers/instructors, students, admission requirements and the conduct of examinations. The findings showed that, students faced problems on the use of printed lecture materials. The findings also show that classrooms and seats are not conducive for lectures and that lecturers/instructors do not teach based on their areas of specialization. The findings pointed out the entry qualifications of students in the programmes which are very low and that, the examinations experience malpractices. The study recommends that, serious attention should be given to rectify these problems.
