The Phase One buildings include the main entrance building, staff lounges and dinning facilities with buildings for central administration, student administration and registration, and PABX. Also required were buildings for the faculties of Arts and Sciences, Economics, Management and Law, plus a central library and brigades command. In addition, a central power station, central heating plant, water storage reservoirs (elevated and ground), and sewage treatment plant were needed to support the campus.
