Universities are not new to Nigeria. In fact, Nigeria had
Universities before the advent of independence. This
shows that Nigerians admonish and appreciate literacy.
From the first generation Universities of the 1950s and
60s to the second generation of the 70s and 80s and
the third generation of the 90s and the 21st century,
Universities have sprung up in the country in all forms.
We have Federal, State and Privately owned Universities
in Nigeria as well as Specialised Universities in the fields
of Education, Engineering and Technology, Petroleum
Resources, Management Science and Health Science/
Technology.
Everyday new Universities are built, Colleges of
Education and Polytechnics are gradually becoming
obsolete and some have the fortune of being converted
into Universities.
Because of the proliferation of Universities in the country,
some youngsters and students find it difficult to select
schools to attend. Although this seems like a paradox
(because the higher the number of schools, the better
the choices) but the truth is that not all schools are the
same.
Some Universities have, over the years, proven
themselves to be excellent and extra-ordinary in training
students of certain fields/disciplines; both disciplinary,
vocational and professional. It is not that other schools do
not offer the same courses or do well, it is simply that a
particular school has a well trained faculty, standard
structures and facilities, rich legacies and superb alumni
networks.
Prospective students will eventually do better if they
select Universities that are well known for the courses
they've applied for.
Without being too verbose, the aim of this thread is
simple: to highlight some Nigerian Universities and the
disciplines/courses they are well known for. The schools I
present are those I am well familiar with.
This means I may not include schools I don't have
sufficient data on. However, as a reader, you may help
me in that by adding schools you are familiar with and
disciplines you know. This list is wholly personal and
based on subjective findings.
My data was generated based on alumni strength, the
amount of academics the schools produce in the field, the
nature and class of results produced by students in the
department, the output of students(practicals,
development, research, etc), physical structures present
in the departments, accreditation status and stability of
department, number of academic staff as well as their
academic pedigree, number and impact factors of
journals and academic outputs from department, etc.
These were sourced from University's websites, internet
research and other sources. As a reader, you may not
agree with what I've written but in that case, feel free to
add your own findings. Learning, as they say, is a
continuous process. This list is presented below:
