Geology/ Geophysic is a hot cake now in Nigeria especially in the petroleum sector. The most important thing about the course(s) is its diversification. With the increasing demand of oil and the exploration of new oil wells, search of underground water in complex terrain, building of dams and bridges, just to mention a few, geology/ geophysics will still remain relevant even till the next century.

Graduate with a good result in the field will always smile to the bank when employed in any of the oil sector or construction firm or hydrological ministries/firms.

They are only few universities in Nigeria that can boast of good geology department with sound theoretical, practical and field knowledge.

Here are list of universities that give the best in geology and can also boast of sound and competent geologist both home and abroad.


1 Obafemi Awolowo University ( OAU)




2 University OF Ibadan




3 University OF Jos (UNIJOS)




4 University OF Benin ( UNIBEN)



5 University Of Nigeria Nsuka



6 University Of Maidiguri ( UNIMAD)



7 Federal University Of Technology Akure (FUTA)



8 Federal University Of Technology Owerri (FUTO)



9 Federal University Of Technology Mina.

11 University Of Ilorin ( UNIlORIN)




12 Delta State University Abraka



13 University Of Calabar. (UNICAL)



14 Federal University Of petroleum Resources (FUPRE )
