Academics Curriculum and Duration of Programme

For those admitted through the UTME, the 100-level courses taken at the Faculty of Science are regarded as “pre-requisites” for movement into the 200 Level courses. Between the Harmattan Semester at the 200 Level and the end of the Harmattan Semester at the 300 Level, all students are exposed to theoretical and practical-based courses in the field of Agronomy. In addition, they are expected to offer required courses in Crop Protection, Agricultural Economics, Agricultural Extension, Animal Production Science, Food Science and Technology, Home Economics, Statistics, Entrepreneurial and General Studies. The rain semester and long vacation of 400 Level is devoted to the Industrial Training program, which is an Internship program aimed at helping students have real-life industry experience. In their final year, students are admitted into the Agronomy to fulfill their final year undergraduate project requirement for graduation. Consequently, in the rain semester of the 500 level, students in the Department exclusively offer courses in Agronomy and also undertake research projects in this field
