ABSTRACT
The study focused on management
information system on the performance of staff in Michael Okpara University
of Agriculture and Alex Ekwueme University. Specifically this study Ascertain the effect of
information storage (Staff bio data and results) on staff promotion rate (Staff turnover) in Michael Okpara
University of Agriculture and Alex Ekwueme University, Determine the effect of staff and students’
data availability (filing system and programmes) on the job effectiveness (service
delivery) of Michael Okpara University of Agriculture and Alex Ekwueme
University, Examine the effect of
computer application (e-learning and computer systems) on staff output (Result
and Time) in Michael Okpara University of Agriculture and Alex Ekwueme
University and lastly, Determine the extent to which
infrastructure and resource allocation (class rooms and funds) to university affect staff Commitment ( Innovation and
techniques) The study
population is 2,332
administrative staff of MOUAU and AEU. Taro Yamane formula was used to deduce the sample size
of three hundred and fort-three (343). Data was analyzed by the use of descriptive
and inferential statistics. Result of objective I and hypotheses 1 tested showed that Equipment
and Software information system has significant
effects on the performance of administrative staff (t=4.972***, p =
0.000 < 0.05. Objective 2 and
hypothesis 2 shows that networks information system within university has significant effects on administrative efficiency of administrative staff (F-statistics
8.997***, p = 0.000 < 0.05), Objective
3 and hypothesis 3 shows that individuals & procedures information system has significant effects on effectiveness of administrative (t =7.963, p = 0.000 < 0.05) and Objective 4 and hypothesis 4 shows that lack of management
skill and financial challenge hamper efficient performance of management
information system in Nigeria Universities (Z-calculated value less than the
t-tabulated value of 1.96 at p< 01120). The study, therefore, recommends that management should aid in the development of existing system and make
provision of adequate information relating to MIS in order to simplify complex
problems and facilitate high quality administrative staff performance in
Nigerian Universities.
