Universities Unveil New Curriculum Taking Off In September

As schools plan to begin a new academic session in September, Universities in Nigeria have designed new course curriculum to improve the overall learning outcomes for each discipline as well as each programme and course. The universities have specially structured the course outlines in schools to ensure that students do not have more than 30 credit units or 48 credit units per session.

The whole essence is to provide quality and useful education for students that will aid them to being self- employed after school. The  documents are structured to provide for 70 percent of core courses for each programme, while allowing universities to utilise the remaining 30 percent for other innovative courses in their peculiar areas of focus.

The courses under Agriculture include; Agribusiness, Agricultural Science, Agricultural Economics, Agricultural Extension, Animal Science, Crop Science; Family and Consumer Sciences; Fisheries and Aquaculture; Food Science and Technology, Forest Resources and Wildlife Management, Horticulture and Landscape Management, Soil Science, and Water Resources Management and Agro-meteorology.

Also, Architecture was unbundled into Architectural Technology, Furniture Design, Interior Architecture Design, Landscape Architecture, and Naval Architecture
